Well, its hard when the sender is not signed, so I can share appropriately their feelings, in this case from his/her trip in Tikal. Its says that they celebrated last New year`s eve there, which is 2013 🙂 I think it will be amazing celebrating New Year`s Eve in this astonishing place, full of hidden ancient beauties. Although i believe is famous crowded touristic place, still i think is beautiful to be there .
Additional Information – In the heart of the jungle, surrounded by lush vegetation, lies one of the major sites of Mayan civilization, inhabited from the 6th century B.C. to the 10th century A.D. Tikal sits in the Peten department of Guatemala, deep within one of Central America’s largest rainforests.
Tikal was the Mayan capital – It was the beating heart of the Mayan empire and ruled most of Mesoamerica politically, economically and militarily. By 600 AD it had a sports stadium, a school and a hospital. It also had a library packed with thousands of books. Today only four Mayan books still exist. Traces of early farming and agriculture have been found too, that go back to 1000 BC. A collection of Mayan pottery and ceramics were found in a sealed burial chamber here that dates back to around 700 BC.
