After two
weeks in Guatemala we leave with mixed feelings: We had some amazing days with
great sites and nature – but on the other hand security is a big issue, prices
are very high and tourism is canalized. So we’re very happy and excited to
enter the next country: MEXICO!!
At the
border our luggage gets controlled TWICE by dogs – we never witnessed that
before and it’s very interesting – but no pictures allowed ;-)
Our first
stop is Palenque and we have a great first dinner in town. WOOOWWW, the food is
sooo good!!
Palenque
is small and relaxed. Here’s the main Plaza.
And of
course, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
The main attraction
of Palenque are the ruins. The site is way smaller than Tikal, but nevertheless
very famous: It contains some of the finest architecture, sculptures, roof comb
and bas-relief carvings that the Mayas produced.
As in
Tikal, one can climb up the temples and enjoy great views!
