Discovering Maya cities one day I had the great experience of visiting El Mirador. I clearly remember that day. We got there at 8:45 am. The helicopter took off at 9:00am. The 60 square miles of fresh water, Petén Itza Lake, looked mystical; the island of Flores with its little red rooftops impressed me a lot. Right after the green sea of vegetation, this hundreds of  miles and miles of forest, made me feel like flying to a lost world.

The pilot pointed out a big mound in the horizon, it was La Danta pyramid. I could not believe it, impossible I said. I know La Danta was the largest structure in the entire continent of America before the construction of Empire´s State Building in North America. But, being there and seeing it made me feel different. It was like knowing nothing about the Maya after 6 years of experience. We had the opportunity to fly over the ancient city of El Mirador. When we landed I had the sensation of becoming mortal again. Do you want to know the rest of my experience, I invite you to come and discover it on your own.
