Xcambó

The two-lane road to Xcambó is flanked by gorgeous wetlands often inhabited by flamingos. The seldom-visited ruins, 3km south of Hwy 27, formed part of a Maya salt distribution center and the site was an important ceremonial center. The petén-style structures surrounding the plaza were built during the early classic period.
