Each year thousands of tourists from all over the world flock to the ancient Mayan ruin of Chichen-Itza to join locals in witnessing the incredible natural show of the Vernal Equinox. Also known as 'El Castillo' because of its dominating size, the Mayan Kukulcan pyramid in the Yucatan peninsula is the largest Mayan temple in Mexico. Visitors watch in amazement as the afternoon shadow of the serpent god Kukulcan slowly snakes its way down the immense steps of the ruin. Up to 40,000 visitors travel to the site each year to watch this magical event.
