There will be opportunity to also climb the great pyramid. This Maya city placed on the hills is the largest and most beautiful in the northern region of Campeche. The present name seems to derive from Oxmal, meaning “three times built”. This seems to refer to the site’s antiquity and the times it had to rebuild.
