The Shadow and the Serpent – Fall Equinox at El Castillo Pyramid, Chichen Itza

Tuesday 22nd

On September 22, thousands will visit this ancient Mayan ruin site to witness a mysterious play of light on stone, as the sun makes a shadow in the shape of a serpent on the side of the stairs of the “El Castillo” pyramid, also known as Kukulcan, in Chichen Itza.

The serpent shadow, which used to be the sign for the Mayas to start planting corn, begins to appear around 4 p.m. during the equinox on the north side of the pyramid and continues for an hour. El Castillo, which stands 105 feet high with staircases climbing its four faces, was built with such mathematical precision and aligned to catch the rays of the setting sun during the equinoxes.
