From San Cristóbal to Palenque

We started the week very early and left San Cristóbal on Monday morning at 6:00 am to visit Agua Azul, Misol-Ha and finally in the afternoon the Mayan ruins in Palenque.

Palenque
The Mayan site of Palenque was first occupied around 100 BC and it's prime time was around 600-700 AD, during the reign of king Pakal. Palenque was abandoned around 900 AD and was only rediscovered in 1773, after having been completely hidden in the jungle.
