Ek Balam (Dark Jaguar) is one of the oldest Mayan sites in mexico, and it was a major center of power until it was eclipsed in around 1200 AD, for unknown reasons. This beautiful city is now but a ruin, among its faded beauty is enough to brun the heart of the many tourists who have been visiting the location since 1997.

Today there remains little of the ancient pride of this once mighty city. But if you just close your eyes, you’ll here the rolling drums, the screams of the priest, and see the fiery eyes of the chief, with a little bit of imagination. Visit the Dark Jaguar, and experience the passion of its power.
