It has been over 1,300 years since the last inhabitants abandoned this building. The walls have begun to re-emerge from the tropical forest floor as archaeologist begin the process of excavation and restoration.

I ponder, imagining what life was once like here, centuries ago.

I saw a documentary about it in Nat Geo or in Odisseia channels. Guess now it is spoiled by mass tourism, you are lucky to have been there before.

I spent almost three weeks hammock camping at the entrance to Tikal in 1975, exploring the extensive ruins daily. I returned 30 years later with my family. It was "overrun" by tourists but still fascinating.

This amazing temple/pyramid center was “discovered “ when pilots in the early 1900s spotted pyramids rising above the canopy of a vast rainforest. 50 years later I explored the partially restored ruins that had become an international attraction.
