Kabah: A Hidden Rival on the Puuc Route The morning will take us to explore on foot the archaeological zone of Kabah, a key settlement on the Puuc Route. Its imposing structures reveal that Kabah rivaled Uxmal, to which it was connected by a sacbé, an 18 km "road." The architecture of Kabah will captivate you, especially the Codz Pop temple, whose Mayan name means "rolled mat" or "royal mat." This building, adorned with hundreds of masks of the god Chaac, is a masterpiece of Mayan art, where each mask is composed of 30 individually carved pieces.
