The city was built upon broken terrain, which was artificially levelled in order to build the major architectural groups, with the greatest effort being expended in the levelling of the areas for the Castillo pyramid, and the Las Monjas, Osario and Main Southwest groups.
Chichen Itza is one of the most visited archaeological sites in Mexico with over 2.6 million tourists in 2017.
