Day of the Serpent

In a daytrip from Cancun or the Riviera Maya you can experience the unkown and travel back in time to the days of the Mayan. In the middle of the lush jungle after passing through a narrow footpath in Chichen Itza, the most spectacular view strikes your eyes. The site of the El Castillo de Kukulcan, the Pyramid of the Feathered Serpent, UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the "New 7 Wonders of the World" - all these are for Chichen Itza!

History
The ancient Chichen Itza city was built "at the mouth of the well" as the name indicates. During its 1000 years of history, different tribes left their marks on the settlement. The fusion of different Mesoamerican styles like the Puuc, the Toltec and Mixtecan indicate that it was a cosmopolitan city with very exciting, colourful and unique features in the Yucatan Peninsula. Chichen Itza is a must-see destination especially during the time of the Equinox.

Equinox
During the vernal equinox (March 20th, 21st) and the autumnal (September 21st) the purpose of the Pyramid of the Feathered Serpent is revealed. The "Feathered Serpent" descends in a glory of shadow and light on the western ballustrade of the pyramid's main stairway. 7 triangles of sunlight form its body that creeps down 37 yards/ 34 mts to join the huge serpent head carved in stone at the bottom of the stairway. It signals the most auspicious time to plant the essential and most revered food of the Maya; corn. This event is the most dramatic display of Mayan astronomical knowledge encoded into architecture.

You too can meet the Feathered Serpent
Although the Mayas of old are not with us anymore to perform their rituals live you can still break their codes and witness with us this magical, astronomical and mystical event on the day of the Serpent, the Equinox March 20th,2011.
