Glad to see a collection of Mayan Architecture which aren't ruins!!

Wow! Imagina ver essas construções em seu explendor. Algumas dessas construções são mesmo dignas de serem comparadas com às romanas.

1:07 - It's as if the Mayan architect had toured Egypt and was inspired by the mortuary temple of Queen Hatshepsut. Amazing similarity.

They are extremly different, except for the "terrace" building style.
