El Cuadrángulo de Las Monjas

3 reviews of El Cuadrángulo de Las Monjas

A sacred place with a show included

We are in the inredible archaeological site of Uxmal known as "the three times built". This place, called The Nunnery Quadrangle stands behind the Pyramid of the Magician with its big courtyard . It is a big open square of about 120meteres. From here you can see all the lovely structures that also have a lot of quarters. Hence the Spanish when they were comparing it to a convent. And so they called it: The House of the Nuns. To be more precise and say that you put yourself in the set include 5 distinct zones: The temple west of the Nunnery, Temple East in the Nunnery, South Temple and large Bow, Central Patio of the Quadrangle of Nuns and The Temple of Venus or North Temple Nunnery.

It’s very hot, but it is totally worth it.

Excellent

There are a lot of bats and lizards around that get scared easily, so make sure you respect the wild life. A must when in Mexico. Make sure you hire a tour to understand everything.

Excellent
