    For completists of the Puuc Route only... It is free though. 20 minute circular walk through jungle passing ruins and at least 2 restored buildings .

    It is one of the smallest and the ruins are still partly covered by nature, without a doubt it is another type of experience since they are not completely discovered... But if you've already made it this far, don't hesitate to visit Labna, it's totally worth the few remaining kilometers!

    Sayil, Xlapac and Labna are three sites on the 'Ruta Puuc'. All of them are very near and fortunately cheap. There are a couple of buildings to see, some a bit far to reach (in Sayil). Still all of them gave us a bit more of insight on the Puuc style.

    Not as good as Sayil and Labna.

    Low key, small site. It is not free. There was a payment bowl at the sign-in desk but the caretaker came out from back after finishing his siesta.

    If you are traveling the Puuc Route and you don't have time, I can assure you that this place is dispensable, the only good thing is that all the ruins are in the middle of the jungle and the path has shade, although personally I think they should not charge an entrance fee or charge something symbolic because it is a bit disappointing if you have seen other areas of the route.

    This is a place where excavations have not yet progressed very far. We think the price of 70 pesos per person is too expensive. But at this place there is an entry guard who knows a lot! and he is very happy to provide information about this Müstic place. Thank you two Swiss 🇨🇭 tourists with a motorhome

    not as cool as other sites but still awesome

  • 2/5 Franck C. 1 year ago on Google • 122 reviews
    It's not worth the 70$ you have to pay now. I recommend you skip this one.

    Along the Ruta Puuc, this site is the least impressive. It includes small Mayan ruins in a small forest. It's fine for a stop if you have time but given the more astounding sites along the route, like Kabah and Labna, if you need to skip one, this is the one.

    The pucc route is great because you enter the biosphere reserve in Mérida, the roads are small and there is only one lane going and one return lane, the entrances to the pucc route are under construction, it is my second time I go and I think that previously the tickets were very good, however they are still under construction, on Sundays the entrance to the archaeological zones is free for Mexicans presenting their voter ID, and on other days the tickets are $70 per person

    A small area, but with charm, the main building with a lot of detail, as well as the unique chaac mask, the custodian Miguel very friendly and attentive, a stop that you cannot miss

  • 1/5 Lynn T. 1 year ago on Google • 9 reviews
    There was not much to see. Definitely not worth the 70 pesos.

  • 2/5 Rico Lippert (. 4 years ago on Google • 9 reviews
    If you compare it with kabah its not worth the money. Just a nice walk Entry: 45 Pesos!

  • 4/5 Mike H. 5 years ago on Google
    A small site worth visiting if you're in the area.

  • 4/5 Sabir A. 1 year ago on Google
    A smaller site than its neighbors. Feels too expensive for what it is. Basically, some walls and stones laying around.

  • 5/5 Ardy D. 7 years ago on Google
    Part of ruta puuc. Pictures above do the explaining. Free parking and I believe this one is free admission as well.

  • 4/5 Alexander K. 4 years ago on Google
    It's a minor mayan site, not to be compared with the likes of Uxmal, but not overcrowded and a nice walk around the ruins

  • 5/5 Maggie B. 4 years ago on Google • 2 reviews
    After visiting Uxmal this was the next archeological site to visit on the Puuc route. It is interesting to continue knowing the Mayan culture and the old buildings where they used to live. Don't forget to bring water, food and mosquito repellent

    Excellent place, a place lost in time.
