Why the Puuc Route?
So, the big question is: Why the Puuc Route?
If I could be searching for information on the Maya, ancient and today, anywhere else in the Yucatan Peninsula, why was the Puuc Route so important to me?
Why not Chichen Itza, which was also in the state of Yucatan? Why not the beautiful citadel ruin at Tulum or the mysterious ruins at Coba, both of which were in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo? Or what about the relatively undiscovered huge archeological site of Calakmul in the state of Campeche?
For that matter, why not Guatemala or Belize? These countries are also in the Yucatan Peninsula. And they speak English in Belize.
