So we left Palenque and drove to Bonampak. The roads were a lot better than 2 years ago. So it was an easy drive we came across some Howler monkeys crossing the road so we stopped. The group were split in half so we got to watch them out both sides of the RV that was fun they just stayed where they were so we got some good pictures.
There was a few shops on the walk into the ruins check out the Deer eyes they say they grow right near here I thought they came from south America.
It is a small ruins A good size square with steps up the hill to some buildings.
I think they said this was part of a chair.
But this is why you come here the murals they are the best any place. They have 3 rooms with them from the floor to the ceiling covered with them.
The colors were great.
Hard to believe they were done in 300 BC.
It only takes about an hour and a half to see all of the ruins and do the shopping.
