What travelers say:

The Pyramid of Kukulkan is a cultural site left by the ancient Maya in the northern Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico. Kukulkan is the meaning of the feathered snake god in Mayan culture and is known as the incarnation of the sun, that is, the sun god. The ancient building, which expresses its precision and mystery, is breathtaking to future generations: at sunset on the two days of the spring equinox and autumn equinox each year, the edge walls of a set of steps on the north side form a zigzag seven-segment isosceles under the sun, along with the snakehead carved at the bottom, Like a giant snake swimming from the top of the tower to the earth, symbolizing the waking up at the spring equinox and climbing out of the temple. Every time, the illusion lasts for a full 3 hours and 22 minutes, not bad. Standing in front of the pyramid, clapping, applause magically passed to the top of the temple, even more magical, clapping through the temple echoed, it turned out to be the Mayan god bird green bite. Really very magical, so wonderful! I have to admire the Maya people at that time and deeply understand the wonders of the world. [Sun] Note: The sun and high temperatures in northern Mexico are not a joke, remember to do a good job of flood prevention and heat prevention.
