De beoordeling van de Michelin Gids
The Cuadrángulo de los Pájaros is a residential complex with chambers radiating out from it, made into a religious place. The Pirámide del Adivino lies to the rear of the complex, its striking round edges reminiscent of the Río Bec style. A steep staircase lined with Chaac masks leads to the first temple; its elaborate ornamentation features a monster's gaping maw, imitating the Chenes style. Two additional side staircases lead to a large temple which reaches a height of 33m.
