Cozumel is famous for the glory of its coral reefs and the wonders that await divers and snorkelers when they don a mask and fins. Yet the island also has a rich history and Mayan heritage. The recently inaugurated Kutz Park offers visitors a glimpse of the island in ancient times when it was an important trade center and the site of a shrine to the goddess Ixchel.
By watching a light and sound show and the representation of Mayan ceremonies, the audience learns about the different periods of Mayan history, society and customs, religion and their extraordinary accomplishments in architecture, art and science.
The evening show also pays tribute to the traditions still observed by the Maya, such as music, dance, ceremonies and cuisine. Kutz Park is located on the outskirts of El Cedral village.
