There are few Prehistoric sites in Mexico where the natural environment is as singular as the archaeological monuments, and such is the case of Muyil, an ancient Maya city located 20 minutes away from Tulum, and 1 1/ hour from Cancún.
This is one of the 20 archaeological sites found in the Sian Ka´an Biosphere Reserve, in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo. Muyil takes its name from one of the 2 lagoons, Muyil and Chunyaxche, and represents one of the best-conserved environments of the protected reserve, making it interesting for visitors who want to combine nature and history.
