Itinerario
You can visit the ancient capital of the Mayan World during the Classic period, the archaeological zone of Edzná is one of the must-see spots during your next visit to the state of Campeche. In the Small Acropolis there is also a raised quadrangular platform, with four buildings, in which architectural features of the Puuc style can be seen; one of the structures has a staircase in which glyphs with geometric, animal and human images are distinguished.
The Great Acropolis is perhaps the most representative set of Edzná; It is a large raised platform with a quadrangular plan, on which some eleven or twelve structures were erected. The general style of the ensemble shows a great cultural influence from the Guatemalan Petén.
A good example of Puuc architecture (derived from the earliest style of construction known as Petén, from Edzná is the Plataforma de los Cuchillos, located in the northern part of the archaeological site. An offering of flint knives found in that place earned the name by which this structure is currently known, which was accessed by stairways located on its four sides. The building had 20 rooms, of which 12 had vaulted ceilings that have not been preserved and eight more were roofed with perishable materials.

About Campeche
Campeche is a walled colonial port on the Gulf of Mexico, with pastel houses, old fortifications built against pirates and Maya ruins inland.
Campeche stands on the Gulf of Mexico on the western side of the Yucatán Peninsula, and its historic centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Spanish builders surrounded the city with walls and bastions in the seventeenth century after pirate raids, and sections of the wall, a land gate and several bulwarks survive. Streets of pastel-coloured houses lead to the cathedral on the main plaza.
