Ik Kil Cenote
Ik Kil Cenote is located on the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico, not far from Chichen Itza, and is a naturally formed open-air cenote. "Ik Kil" means "place of the wind" in the Mayan language; it was considered a sacred site in ancient Mayan civilization and was once an important location for Mayan sacrificial rituals. Cenoteopening is nearly circular with a diameter of approx. 60 m. The surrounding stone walls extend almost vertically downward, with a drop of approx. 26 m from the ground to the water surface, and the water is approx. 40 m deep. The stone walls are covered with lush green vegetation, and long vines hang from the edge of the opening down to the water. When looking up from the water, sunlight streams in through the circular opening, making the vines look like a green waterfall suspended in the air. Follow a hand-carved stone staircase down to the water. There are nearly 100 steps. Once you reach the water, you can swim in the clear freshwater. The cenote features a diving platform for visitors to experience cliff diving. Black catfish swim in the water, adding a touch of wild charm to this natural pool.Tinum · 5.8km from Piste
Warriors' Temple
Warriors' Temple is located in Mexico at Chichen Itza. It was built following the model of the temple in Tula, the Toltec capital, and incorporates Mayan architectural techniques, making it even more magnificent than the original. The entire temple is a stone structure atop a stepped pyramid. It contains many columns, which are exquisitely carved with images of Toltec warriors. At the top of the stairs, leading to the temple entrance, stands a Chacmool altar statue.Tinum · 2.9km from Piste
Mil Columnas
Mil Columnas is an iconic view in the core visiting area of the ruins. It is an open, quadrilateral square, with rows of stone columns standing densely: although it is named 'Thousand Columns,' there are far fewer than 1,000 columns remaining, but the column array, stretching over 100m, is still impressive in scale. Archaeological research generally suggests that these stone columns once supported the roof of a massive hall, and after the roof collapsed, only the forest of columns remained. Walking among them feels like passing through a stone forest. Traces of colored stucco are still visible on the columns, showing that this colonnade was far more vibrant in the past than it is today. The east side of the square is adjacent to the Temple of the Warriors, and among the columns surrounding and extending from the temple, many are carved on all four sides with reliefs of warriors, priests, and captives, as well as patterns depicting the Feathered Serpent, revealing a strong emphasis on military and Feathered Serpent beliefs. To the south of the square is the building complex known as the Market, and some believe the entire area was once a large ancient gathering and trading place. Not far to the north is theGreat Ball Court, which can be visited together with this site.Tinum · 3km from Piste

Great little visit. It's actually right next to Chichen Itza so there's a lot to see. Would recommend going early to avoid the crowds and heat. Bring cash if you want to buy souvenirs

You can go there with a tour group from Cancun. The tour fee is the same as the bus fee, which is cheaper than buying tickets directly at the bus station. If you go there by yourself, you can buy tickets on the official website of the station in advance, which will be 50% to 70% off. Just don't miss the time. The pyramids, the Thousand Columns Square, etc. are all together, and the main attractions are concentrated.
