Description

View of ruins of the South Complex at San Miguelito in Cancun, Mexico. "The South Group is made up of six structures which include house platforms, altars, and a nice palace which form around a plaza. The palace is the most notable structure here, and is on the west side of the plaza. It has an east facing, columned entryway with a small stairway in front. There is a small altar against the west wall. Interior columns once held a flat wooden beam roof,"--Mayan Ruins website.
