I Found These Epic Mayan Ruins and Had Them All to Myself

Before Christopher Columbus there were lost cities, roads, empires and an entire New World Civilization. All of this is now hidden in the jungle! These people were the Maya, the Aztec, the Great Inca, and the other indigenous peoples of the Americas. 🏛️ Some of these ruins are still very much off the beaten path, which make them some of the best things to do and see in Mexico, if you know where to look! Explore with me, on foot, some of the greatest of these cities, still barely touched by tourists, deep in the jungles of southern Mexico. These ruins that I take you to in this episode are SO UNKNOWN that you won't even recognize the names. If you were ever curious what America looked liked before Christopher Columbus, then you have found the perfect channel and explorer. 🗺️ Be an explorer with me, Toby Nomad, as we get Becan, Chicanna, and Xpujil ruins virtually to ourselves and climb pyramids, discuss New World Civilization and how it affected the collision of cultures that rocked the world forever and shaped the world that we live in today. 🌍 Prepare to be amazed by the mystery and grandeur of THREE EPIC EXCLUSIVE MAYAN CITIES! 🌟 📌 Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe for more adventures!
