Uxmal, located about 80 kilometers south of Mérida in the Puuc region of Yucatán, is one of the most architecturally refined ancient Maya cities. Unlike other major Maya sites built with steep pyramids and narrow passageways, Uxmal is known for its smooth limestone structures, wide plazas, and intricate stone mosaics.
