Kabah
A Maya site on the Puuc Route, where the facade of the Palace of the Masks is made of hundreds of rain god Chaac masks. It is linked to Uxmal by an ancient sacbé road.
Kabah is about 20 kilometers southeast of Uxmal. It is the second stop on the Puuc Route. In ancient times, a Maya white road (sacbé) connected it to Uxmal, and a free-standing arch still marks the junction. The site's most famous structure is the Palace of the Masks (Codz Poop). Its entire wall is built from hundreds of stone masks of Chaac, the long-nosed rain god, repeated across the facade, which is truly striking. The site is modest in size and has few visitors. A visit takes about an hour. Admission is sold separately (check locally). It is usually visited on the same day as Uxmal, Sayil, and Labná, either by car or on a tour.
