点评:We were staying in Half Moon Bay, Akumal and decided we needed to experience some historic Mexican culture by visiting the Mayan Ruins in Tulum. We arrived in Tulum in our rental car at approximately 10:00am, mid-week. The ruins are well signposted but nothing had prepared us for the mayhem as we arrived... the world and its wife were furiously waiving flags to get our attention, several of these animated maniacs ran in front of our car in order to get us to park nearby. We pushed on looking for official parking close to the ruins and yet more people accosted us and told us we could go no further. We did! Eventually we caved in and parked just short of the entrance site at a cost of $100MX (about £4) for the day. Not actually very much given the utter riot we experienced! Visiting the Mayan Ruins is not as cheap... approximately £30 per person to enter. We queued for about 3 minutes to buy our tickets. Clearly the queue can get quite long as this is a popular attraction. Many of the maniacs will try to sell you a ticket to avoid queuing. I would suggest not buying one off anyone other than the official ticket office!! The site of the Ruins is large and spacious. The Ruins are quite stunning and testament to Mayan ingenuity that they are still standing. I enjoyed walking around the Ruins without a guide. Guides are available and we saw dozens of guided groups, most of which were being overloaded with detailed information and almost comatose. Personally I like a short, sharp and concise burst of information and I would be in danger of throwing my over-knowledgable guide off the historic Mayan clifftop. In summary, the Ruins are good and worth a visit. Are they worth £30 per person? No not really.
翻译:我们住在阿库马尔的半月湾,决定去图卢姆的玛雅遗址体验一下墨西哥的历史文化。那天是周中,我们大约上午10点开着租来的车到达图卢姆。遗址的指示牌很清晰,但我们到达时看到的混乱场面还是让我们始料未及……到处都是挥舞着旗帜的人,试图引起我们的注意,其中几个狂热的家伙甚至跑到我们车前,想让我们把车停在附近。我们继续往前走,想找个靠近遗址的官方停车场,结果又有更多的人拦住我们,告诉我们不能再往前走了。我们还是继续往前走!最后我们只好妥协,把车停在离入口不远的地方,停车费100墨西哥比索(约4英镑)。考虑到我们遇到的混乱场面,这价格其实不算贵!参观玛雅遗址可没那么便宜……门票大约每人30英镑。我们排了大约3分钟的队才买到票。显然,这里是个热门景点,所以队伍可能会很长。很多疯子会试图卖给你票,让你免去排队。我建议你只从官方售票处买票!遗址面积很大,非常宽敞。这些遗址令人叹为观止,它们至今仍屹立不倒,足以证明玛雅人的智慧。我喜欢独自漫步在遗址中。虽然有导游,我们也看到几十个旅行团,其中大多数都被灌输了过多的信息,几乎让人昏昏欲睡。我个人喜欢简洁明了、重点突出的信息,如果导游知识过剩,我真想把他从玛雅古城的悬崖上扔下去。总而言之,遗址很不错,值得一游。但是,它值每人30英镑吗?我觉得不值。
