Comments
Edzná is a Maya archaeological site in the north of the Mexican state of Campeche. The most remarkable building at the site is the main temple located at the plaza. Built on a platform 40 meters high, it provides a wide overview of the surroundings. Another significant building located in the plaza is a ball court.
