The most imposing construction of the site, a pyramid of seven levels built during the ancient classic.

The Nohoch Mul ("great mound" in Maya) is the most imposing construction of the site. This seven-level, 42-meter-high pyramid was built during the Early Classic period (200-600 AD) as a temple and mausoleum for the ruling dynasties. The temple at the top built in the Late Postclassic (1200-1550), corresponds to the architectural style of the coast of the period. One can see there a sculpture of the descending God, a deity venerated on other sites of the coast. Unfortunately, it is no longer possible to access the summit for security reasons.

Il faut aller en son sommet pour apprécier le panorama unique sur la jungle luxuriante. Impressionnante vue d'en bas également, cette pyramide marque les visiteurs de son empreinte inoubliable.
