A Geographical Feature: Chichen Itza

Hi Guys, How are u? Today, my teacher has asked me to write about a geographical feature. I chose Chichen Itza, On Yucatan, México.
Fist, Chichen Itza was a city (or a ceremonial center) , which went through several construction periods and influences of the different peoples who occupied it and promoted it since its foundation. It is one of the major archaeological sites of the Yucatan Peninsula. The monumental architecture that has survived to this day , which is emblematic of the site, has a clear Toltec influence. The god who presides over the site , according to Mayan mythology, is Kukulcan, Maya representation of Quetzalcoatl , god taken from the pantheon of the Toltec culture. The archaeological site of Chichen Itza was inscribed on the List of World Heritage by UNESCO in 1988.3 On July 7, 2007 , the Temple of Kukulcan, located in Chichén Itzá , was recognized as one of the new Seven Wonders of the World modern, by a private initiative without the support of Unesco, but with the recognition of millions of voters around the world.
Incredible, eh? Well, for me, it is incredible, wonderful, magestic. I know about this place because of my mother. She went on holydays last year with my dad to Riviera Maya, on Mèxico, and they  seized the opportunity to visit the Mayan ruins . She talked to me about their biggest stairs and their untochable top, almost touching the sky. Since that moment, I has wanted to go there every day of my life, You know, something like "connect with native village's people".





I hope go there soon. :)
