Lubaantun

Lubaantun, situated above a tributary to the Columbia River, is located near San Pedro-Columbia in the Toledo District. Since there is no public transportation to the ruin, you must make arrangements in Punta Gorda Town, if you wish to visit the site.

Built in the Late Classic period, Lubaantun is the largest ceremonial center in the area. Consisting of eleven major structures, grouped around five main plazas, the ruin is unique in that it was built entirely without the aid of mortar. Each stone was carefully measured and cut to fit with its adjoining stone.
