Depart from the Malacate Pier on your air-conditioned bus for a scenic one-hour bus ride to the picturesque archaeological site of Nim Li Punit, or "Large Hat". Nim Li Punit is in the Mayan Kekchi language. This is the name given to this site, due to a depiction on a stela of one of its rulers wearing a very large headdress. This unique Mayan ceremonial site was built on a hillside overlooking the fertile Toledo lowlands where crops were grown to feed the Mayan rulers that occupied this temple. Here at this well-maintained site, there is a small museum and welcoming center where you can observe some of the large stelas and artifacts that have been preserved. Nim Li Punit, also boasts a well-preserved ball-court in the center of the complex, and a Mayan observatory is also located within one of the various plazas.
