Chichen Itza: Secrets of the Lost Mayan City

Chichen Itza stands among the greatest achievements of the ancient Maya, and this film explores the temples, pyramids, and astronomy encoded in its stone. It walks through the storied city of the Yucatan, examining how a civilisation tracked the sun, built the towering El Castillo, and left behind mysteries that archaeologists are still unravelling. Rather than treat the ruins as a postcard, it treats them as evidence of a sophisticated and enduring culture. History and Maya enthusiasts will find plenty to sink into.
