Muyil Archaeological Site

The Mayan ruins of Muyil (also known as Chunyaxche) are located about 10 miles south of Tulum pueblo on the main highway. The best way to get there is by rental car or taxi. It´s best to arrange a rate with the taxi driver so s/he can wait for you while you walk through the site. Muyil is located in the northern region of the Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve and is the largest Mayan site within the reserve. The site is open seven days a week. There are no services at the site, so be sure to bring plenty of water and snacks. This is actually a large site, but only a small area is open to the public. This is a great site to visit, very few people actually make it to these ruins.

Ruins Ceremony
Tulum Archaeological Site
Each 21st day of the month at 8:00 a.m, a ritual is performed at local archaeological sites with the intention of activating the chakras of the earth, which correspond to places of power identified among the ancient Mayans, where they chose to build their pyramids. These rituals have been performed each month for four years at the Tulum site, and this year the group began to activate the four directions at the solstices and equinoxes: North/Xel-Há/June solstice, South/Muyil/December solstice, East/Tulum/March equinox, and in the West/Cobá/September equinox. The ceremony begins by asking permission of the four directions, after which a Hebrew diagram is activated and the group closes the circle by holding hands and concentrating on the activation of the chakra. The cosmic energy unites with the earth, helping to balance the vibrations. Each person shares his/her feelings, desires, requests, and thanks is given to finish off the group´s work of light for humanity.
