The lengthy inscription on the Hieroglyphic Stairway Plaza is of considerable historical significance.

You get some te tasting experience, made from the noni plant. The tea is served piping hot with a bit of lime and honey - noni has many health benefits like anti-oxidants and anti-bacterial properties. Also, the opportunity to get to know the Mayan Culture and buy some nice organic dark chocolate products - Drinking chocolate dates back centuries to the Mayan civilization.
