After or visit to Chichen Itza, the tour bus took us to this well. It is commonly called a cenote and the landowner where this cenote is located has opened it up and made it accesible to the public. The Mayans used these for water, but also for human and other sacrifices. This particular cenote has yeilded many treasures from its bottom (approx 125 feet deep) as well as some human remains.
And of course, my fearless kids jumped in......here's Vivian
