TAZUMAL AND CASA BLANCA: ARCHEOLOGY AND HISTORY
Casa Blanca became the center of an important Maya lordship at the end of the Late Pre-classic period, where jaguar heads, fragments of stelae, and the remains of more than 30 people have been found, who seem to have been sacrificed as part of the war campaigns of that time. At the end of the Classic period, the ceremonial center of Casa Blanca moved to Tazumal. There, you will see a court of the famous Mayan ball game, a ceremonial pyramid of 24 meters, 13 other secondary structures, a system of aqueducts, and the emblematic 2.65 meters high Tazumal Stela. On the way back, you can enjoy lunch at the Nawi Hotel at the Mizata beach, which is also a perfect surfing spot to end the day.
