Located in the rainforest of the Petén province in northern Guatemala, Tikal was one of the largest cities of the ancient Maya civilization. Archaeologists estimate that, at its peak, Tikal’s population ranged from 50,000 to 100,000. Among the many Mayan sites in Central America, Tikal is perhaps the most impressive because of its jungle setting with impressive temples peeking through the canopy.
