English: Sayil is a Mayan archaeological site in the Mexican state of Yucatán, in the southwest of the state, south of Uxmal. It was incorporated together with Uxmal as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1996

The Great Palace is one of the most beautiful of all Mayan structures, it is the most important building in Sayil and its lengthy form of three levels contains 98 rooms. The main facade looks to the south and is located on a platform from where the "sacbé" (road) begins.

An ample stairway leads from the ground to each of the three floors. Roof of the first and second floors also serve as terraces, since each level is recessed.

The walls of the second story are decorated with columns and with large-nosed Chaac masks. The walls are also adorned with sculptures of the Gods "Ah Mucen Cab", or the bee God linked to Venus worship and "Kukulkán", the feathered serpent. All the forms are well-balanced and wide porticos alternate with rows of columns.
