    Wow, another amazing video. These videos have made me want to visit Guatemala. I was at a dinner party yesterday talking to friends about your videos and these beautiful countries that no one speaks of. Guatemala is on my bucket list and I cant wait to see El Salvador. I live in Los Angeles, come from Mexican parents, have known Guatemalan and Salvadorean people my whole life. Its such a shame that Ive never heard anyone mention the beauty of these places. I was going to plan a trip to Thailand (Ive been twice), but this may be something completely new and closer for me to explore. Thank you for opening this up to the world.

    I first visited Guatemala back in the 1990's and fell in love with the country and people. Tikal was a special experience, especially because I took a night hike in the jungle with a ranger and saw the animals and critters that come out a night, like huge tarantulas. I actually camped in Tikal in small wood sheds in the national park. I wonder if those camping sheds are still available.

  • @petetheexplorer
    @petetheexplorer 3 дні тому +20

    You are right. This site ranks up there as one of the best in the world. I personally think it should be a wonder of the world along with Angkor Wat. I mean how do those get left out, right? Glad you had a great time. There is another smaller temple complex that's even more emerged into the rainforest called Yaxha. If you get a chance check it out. Enjoy!

    Local Petenero here, the Tikal national park is more than just ruins, it is a wildlife ecosystem because it is in the Mayan biosphere, they could also go to Yaxha which is a smaller park but with less people or go to "Arcas" which is an animal shelter for our ecosystem

    Todos los idiomas mayas provienen de un idioma madre, que es el Protomaya. Así como el español, italiano, portugués y francés vienen del latín. Según la ciencia el protomaya tuvo su origen en la Sierra de los Cuchumatanes en Huehuetenango, Guatemala.

    La pirámide de Chichen Itzá que es una de las maravillas del mundo, mide 24 metros de altura. En Tikal hay por lo menos 8 pirámides más altas que la de Chichen Itzá.
    Templo 1 = 47 metros.
    Templo 2 = 38 metros.
    Templo 3 = 55 metros.
    Templo 4 = 65 a 70 metros.
    Templo 5 = 57 metros.
    Templo 6 = 12 metros.
    Templo 33 = 33 metros.
    Pirámide 5C-54 = 35 metros.
    Pirámide 5C-49 = 22 metros (originalmente con el templo y crestería destruido en la cima era más alto)
    Acrópolis Sur = es la segunda más alta de Tikal pero aún no se ha descubierto de la tierra.

    I visited Tikal about 10 years ago. It is absolutely the greatest of the known Myan ruins.
    It's at least an all-day adventure. Arrive at sun up, bring breakfast (eat at the top of a pyramid).
    Hollar monkeys were screaming the entire time. Lots of spider monkeys, too.
    Much better access than other Myan sites we've visited.
    We almost skipped Guatemala, based on the U.S. State Dept warnings. The people we interacted with in Peten were super friendly. Order tepezcuintle at a local restaurant. It's delicious.

    En Guatemala están las dos ciudades mayas más grandes del mundo maya. La segunda ciudad más grande es Tikal y la primera ciudad más grande es el sitio arqueológico El Mirador, que tiene la pirámide más grande del mundo y la más alta de las Américas pero en su mayoría está cubierto por la vegetación. Para llegar a la ciudad hay que caminar por la selva 5 días entre ida y vuelta o ir en helicóptero. En Guatemala está el monolito maya más grande y se encuentra en Quiriguá que es un sitio arqueológico con estelas y monolitos que son piedras grabadas con escritura y arte maya. El sitio arqueológico Takalij Abaj es la ciudad que dio origen a la cultura maya en el sur del país, luego se extendieron por Guatemala, México, Belice, Hondura y El Salvador.

    Guatemala is gorgeous and has a lot to offer (based on your videos along with other sites I have researched), but Mexico is much larger and has so many other sites to visit and experience. Also, while Guatemalan cuisine is good, Mexican cuisine is more varied and at another level. That being said, I think both countries are definitely worth visiting. I think Guatemala's one advantage over Mexico is overall less tourists, which is always a plus.

    El sitio donde subieron para tener las vistas a la isla, es el sitio arqueológico Tayasal que aún no ha sido excavado. Hay alrededor de 400 estructuras bajo tierra y la pirámide más alta tiene una altura de 36 metros. Tiene un extensión de 6 Km cuadrados. A la par del sitio arqueológico hay un cenote que era sagrado para los mayas y donde se cree que fue arrojado un caballo de piedra que construyeron los mayas cuando vinieron los españoles. También se relata que en en la isla de Flores bajo la ciudad hay parte de una pirámide que fue destruida por los españoles y en la cima colocaron la iglesia.

    En el sitio arqueológico Holmul en Guatemala se encontraron grabados en murales mayas lo que es un tamal. Es la evidencia más antigua del consumo de tamales. La tortilla es base de la gastronomía guatemalteca. El colocar comida dentro de una tortilla no lo hace ser comida mexicana. Es como la pupusa, es originaria de Guatemala y en Guatemala están los textos más antiguos que hablan de la pupusa como comida guatemalteca, pero fue El Salvador quien la ha hecho popular.

    Tikal has to be one of the wonders of the world! In my opinion it's much better than Chichen Itza and some other Mayan ruins. Tikal is the best!

    Like number 421. Carol, forgive me, I ask you this question with the respect you deserve. What's your favorite color for their bikinis?

      I think green and red are my favorite colors for swimwear 😊

    I guess it depends what your criteria is for "betterness". Guatemala may be less touristy, but at the same times it's probably that way, because it's not as developed as Mexico in terms of infrastructure, services and its tourism sector. Guatemala still seems like the entire country is "developing", while Mexico has many areas that are very modernized in many aspects. So Mexico is probably better for people who don't want to get too much out of their comfort zone. But honestly, after seeing the Yucatan and Panama City, Guatemala doesn't interest me as much as it did before. You even said yourself, it's similar to Mexico in many aspects.
    But $33.00 for a room like THAT in Guatemala seems steep to me.

    Have you guys been to India? My husband and I are going there. If you have been there, did Carol feel safe?

      Unfortunately I didn’t feel safe in some areas like Delhi 😕 Other parts of the country like Kerala and Goa were different and I felt safe 90% of the time but unfortunately I had a bad experience in Delhi. If you’re going to Delhi, please AVOID a place called Paharganj.
