Chichen Itza

The site of Chichen Itza has two major cenotes. One was used for drinking water and was used for sacrifices. The Sacred Cenote has been yielded many artifacts. A stone platform on the south end overlooks the large green pool. A sacbe leads from the cenote back to the main area and El Castillo.
