    This is the world’s largest pyramid.

    See it?

    It’s under the church.

    Use your x-ray vision to look under all the trees.

    A bit has been excavated and reconstructed on the other side.

    image

    But it still mostly looks like a hill.

    When they clear off the vegetation they find the rounded bit in front, and then they have to reconstruct to get the nice clean pyramid in the background.

    But they can’t do too much of that here because there’s a fancy church in the way.

    With a lot of gold

    So most of the archeology happens underground

    image

    In tunnels

    image

    From the church there are good views of the town

    image

    And all of the other churches
