Flores

Flores Unmissables

Flores serves as the gateway to the southern Maya lowlands, anchored by the Tikal National Park. This UNESCO World Heritage site features iconic structures like the Temple of the Great Jaguar and the Temple of the Masks. Beyond Tikal, the region contains the astronomical complex of Uaxactun and Pre-Classic ruins at Cival. The island town of Flores, situated on Lake Petén Itzá, houses the 19th-century church of Nuestra Señora de los Remedios, blending colonial history with ancient archaeological landscapes.
