Home / Playa Del Carmon, Barcelo, Mexico / Scott's Mexico Pictures / Pictures of Tulum, Mayan ruins south of Playa del Carmen, Mexico. 58
Bailey, Chris, Travis, and I visited these ruins one afternoon. It was a gorgeous day and apparently there weren't that many visitors to Tulum that day, but it seemed like there were a lot of people there to me. It was pretty cool.
- "El Castillo" and a shot of the crowds.
- "El Castillo" the central building (used for ceremonies, we are told).
- "Tulum" means "walled city"
- A channel in the rocks looking from the cliff.
- A recently built thatch hut at Tulum, looking off to the ocean.
- A slanted walkway leads up to worn pillars and a door to the inside of this building (we couldn't go up there).
- A tree with a death grip on this rock 1
- A tree with a death grip on this rock 2
- A very strange looking tree.
- An iguana sunning itself. It was a little over a foot long.
- By the time we were done at Tulum the lines (and the crowds) had become much larger.
- Cliffs at Tulum. Looking North towards the lighthouse.
- Cliffs at Tulum. Looking South towards the lighthouse (the square structure on the cliff).
- I just can't get over how short they were.
- Lonely.
