We were dreaming a Mayan city lost in the jungle, impressive temples lived by monkeys, snakes and tucans. We were dreaming a forgotten world, to be explored in complete solitude, leaving space only to the imagination of ancient and golden times… we are allowed to feel all these intense emotions at the archaeological site of Tikal: a gigantic Mayan complex, totally dipped in the forest. There, we have passed an entire afternoon trying to climb the temples and observing with the eyes turned towards the sky the phrenetic life of the monkeys (monos araña and saraguatos) and of the other numerous animals. Only the beauty of an intense and short sunset, took us back to reality, hiding us this incredible ”mundo perdido”, lost world, and its masters…
