The Hieroglyphic Stairway Square has a monumental staircase, one of the exceptional structures of the Mayan culture. On the 10-meter-wide steps, there are more than 1,250 individual glyphs, which constitute the longest known Mayan inscription. After the City was abandoned, it was swallowed up by the jungle, which helped its conservation.
