About Palenque
Palenque is a small town in Chiapas beside a Maya city of temples and a palace set on a rainforest hillside, near the waterfalls of Misol-Ha and Agua Azul.
The Maya city of Palenque reached its height in the seventh century, in a hillside of rainforest in the Mexican state of Chiapas. Its stone buildings, with steep pyramids, roof combs and carved stucco, are a World Heritage site. The Temple of the Inscriptions, a stepped pyramid, holds the tomb of the ruler K'inich Janaab' Pakal, found inside in 1952, and the Palace, with its tower, stands in the heart of the site.
