Set in thick jungle screeching with insects,
Palenque is for many people the most extraordinary of
the major Maya sites. It's not large - you can see everything
in a morning - but it is hauntingly beautiful, strongly linked
to the lost cities of Guatemala while keeping its own distinctive
style. The site , in a beautiful national
park 9km from the town of Palenque, occupies the top
of an escarpment marking the northern limit of the Chiapas highlands.
The town itself (officially Santo Domingo de
Palenque) is of little intrinsic interest and is best viewed simply
as a base for exploring the ruins and the waterfalls in the nearby
hills. And, since there are a number of new camping and caba?a
places near the ruins, you may prefer not to stay in town at all.
