Mayan Site of Palenque and the Waterfalls of Aguas Azules and Misol-ha
In order to save time I took a hard-going one-day tour to Palenque, one of the principal Mayan ruins in Mexico. The tour also stopped off on route at Aguas Azules (blue waters) and the waterfall of Misol-ha. Aguas Azules was a wonderful surprise – stunning turquoise water pools as you ascend between mini waterfalls.
As with all tour agency excursions they never leave you enough time at the destination. Palenque was no exception. We rushed around with our guide in 2 hours, understood very little about the Mayan culture or the ruins, but managed at least to see this awesome site emerging from the undergrowth and to walk around it.
Here are the photos.
