One of the most historically interesting parts of my trip to Mexico was our visit to Chichen-Itza. This archeological site was part of a pre-Columbian city built by the Mayans. On the ground there are a series of awe-inspiring pyramids and 'The Great Ball Court" (amongst other ancient structures). "The Great Ball Court" is what the ball court in the movie The Road to El Dorado was modeled after (click here to see what I'm talking about).
