Wienerawald Lake mornings.

During our visit, Chichen Itza site was invaded by crowds of tourists, and also plenty merchants on the alleys. Fortunately, as we were leaving at the site's closing, there was almost nobody left.

So i could take a quiet shot of the stunning pyramid of Kukulkan.

 

This pyramid (also called El Castillo) is not the largest in Mexico: it is about 30m high (99 ft), compared to the 65m (216 ft) Pyramid of the Sun in Tehotihuacan.

But it is certainly one of the most beautiful and best preserved in the country. It dates from the 12th century.

 

Kukulcan was the Feathered Serpent God among the Toltecs, he was the God of resurrection and reincarnation.

Le calme retrouvé

 

Lors de notre visite, le site de Chichen Itza était envahi par des foules de touristes, et aussi par plein de marchands sur les allées. Heureusement, à la fermeture du site, alors que nous repartions, il n'y avait presque plus personne.

Ca m'a permis un cliché tranquile de la pyramide extraordinaire de Kukulkàn.

 

Cette pyramide (également appelée El Castillo) , n'est pas la plus grande du Mexique : elle fait environ 30m de haut , à comparer aux 65 m de la pyramide du Soleil à Tehotihuacan.

Mais c'est certainement une plus belles et des mieux conservées du pays. Elle date du 12ème siècle.

 

Kukulcán était le dieu Serpent à Plumes chez les Toltèques, il était le Dieu de la résurection et de la réincarnation.

View from the Lymington river to the Solent, with the Isle of Wight in the background in the fog. Sea was very calm and flat with not much wind.

Parking by the restaurant at Otter Ferry, on the Cowal peninsula, we walked away from the masses for some peace and tranquillity by Loch Fyne.
