The
Castillo at Chichen Itza is the dominant structure of the site. It shows Toltec-Mexica
influence and is from the late period. It is one of several constructions that
show astronomical alignment. The pyramid is built over an earlier pyramid. A
passage way leads up into the main room of the older temple. Inside is a Chac
Mul and a jaguar throne.
