Here is the view from the top of one part of the huge city of Caracol in  
Belize.
Behind this group you can just see the base of another which is still  
totaly covered in jungle.

Keep in mind that they didn't look much like they do now, they were  
covered in plaster painted red, white and black, and they had thatched  
roofing over the walls.
