The seventh wonder of the world, this is the Temple of the Feathered Serpent, named after the Mayan creation God Kukulkan. Built between the 11th and 13th centuries, it’s nine levels were symbolic of the nine dimensions of the Mayan underworld and the nine Lords of the Night who ruled this domain. Every year tens of thousands gather at Chichén Itzá during Spring Equinox to witness the interplay of light and shadow that creates the illusion of Kukulkan slithering down its steps connecting with the carved head of Kukulkan at the base of the stairs.
