MAYAN RUINS |
|||||
| The Mayan ruins of Tulum are located on the east coast of the Yucatan Peninsula in the territory of Quintana Roo, Mexico. Tulum was built between 900AD and 1200AD and was still occupied when the Spaniards arrived in the early 1500s. Tulum is enclosed by a wall that stands 15ft high and 20ft wide and is nearly 1,270ft long with 5 gateways and 2 watch towers on the eastern corners. |
