Tikal was the capital of a great Maya city-state, one of the most powerful kingdoms of the ancient Maya. Today Tikal is a site of expansive Mayan ruins deep in the jungle, in the rainforests of northern Guatemala. Tikal became an important ceremonial center between 300 B. C. E. and 100 C. E. and reached its apogee between 300 and 850 C. E, with its great plazas, pyramids, and palaces. By 900 A. D, after hundreds of years of prosperity, like many of the other Mayan states, the great city of Tikal collapsed (although some cities like Chichen Itza, continued to flourish for centuries. Tikal is listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. Recorded November 2021 in 4K Ultra HD with Sony AX700 and Osmo Pocket 2.

Enjoyed both video and audio. Sounds of the place are not available in many cases, and it would require too much more time and effort to record them, as you have already explained before, repeatedly. But for this specific video, you got some local sounds which obviated background music. Many of your fans love that even though other fans prefer music. Like Abraham Lincoln said, you can't please all of the people all of the time. No worry. Many of us like sounds AND/OR music. Variety!

You could not have chosen better music to accompany this video, than the natural sounds that surround this surreal space. Kind of spooky to me. May be not when you are there, but it looks intimidating, somewhat eerie to me. And there seems to be a whole lot more that needs to be unearthed still. May be in 5 or so years you can go back and film it again! Thanks for sharing your great videos with us sofa travelers.

I recently saw some photos taken by my parents there in early 1986 (they didn't know until a few weeks ago that Guatemala was still in civil war at that time, and not only there was absolutely no visitors, there was no paths, no accomodation whatsoever, nothing that would suggest that this would become a major tourist attraction.
You just see the temple completely surrounded by jungle, it's surreal!

Tikal is an excellent site. Years ago my mum did most of the sites in Mexico and travelled out to the Yukatan peninsula but unfortunately Guatemala was not safe at the time so she could not go there. Tons of photos from Mexico though. Sound track was truly perfect for the footage and gave the right feel for the location. A pleasure to get such a good look at this site.

Your sensitivity is extreme, and you demonstrate it with this footage in which you leave the wonderful ambient sound, which transports us to a time travel of this place. Thank you so much for this wonderful trip! Love and light from Brazil.

It's amazing to see everything from the sunrise when people turn red to the beautiful sunset.
It was very strange that the jungle was almost windless. I love wetlands and jungles.
I am looking forward to a wonderful video.

Wonderful video from our Milosh the GREAT.
Dear Milosh may I ask you how many video cameras do you usually use for a video like this one? Please take care of yourself my friend.

Such a wonderful place. One can almost hear and feel the History spoken
Definitely a place added to the places that need to be visited before I die
Thanks millions for sharing!

Mysterious, impressive, and utterly fascinating ruins! The calls of indigenous wildlife are a welcome departure from the music tracks that traditionally accompany these videos.

The high places of ancient Babylon. Human sacrifice. Evil evil evil. See those circular stones on the ground? Those were used to sacrifice their own infants to the gods
