Ek Balam

A Maya city north of Valladolid, with detailed stucco and fewer visitors.

Ek Balam is the site travelers add when they have already seen the famous postcard and want something quieter. The acropolis carvings are the reason to go. It pairs naturally with a night in Valladolid.

Before you go

Combine it with Valladolid rather than with a same-day return to Tulum.
