Chichén-Itzá, México (MMCT)
Chichén-Itzá v1.0 (MMCT for XP)
Chichen Itza International Airport (IATA: CZA, ICAO: MMCT) is an international airport located in Chichen Itza, Yucatán, Mexico, in the northern Yucatán Peninsula. Airport construction began in 1999 and it was inaugurated on April 12, 2000 with an investment of 135 million pesos (about $14,250,000 USD in that year). Initially, Aeroméxico, Mexicana, Aerocozumel and American Airlines were interested in making operations at the airport, shortly after the airlines stopped operating because it was not profitable, the tourists arrived first to Cancún and after they went to Chichén Itzá in car or bus. Currently the airport is almost inoperative and has left a debt of 27 million pesos (about $1,450,000 USD).
Chichen Itza is one of the most visited archaeological sites in Mexico; an estimated 1.4 million tourists visit the ruins every year.Chichen Itza was a major focal point in the Northern Maya Lowlands from the Late Classic (c. AD 600–900) through the Terminal Classic (c. AD 800–900) and into the early portion of the Postclassic period (c. AD 900–1200). The site exhibits a multitude of architectural styles, reminiscent of styles seen in central Mexico and of the Puuc and Chenes styles of the Northern Maya lowlands. The presence of central Mexican styles was once thought to have been representative of direct migration or even conquest from central Mexico, but most contemporary interpretations view the presence of these non-Maya styles more as the result of cultural diffusion.
Chichen Itza was one of the largest Maya cities and it was likely to have been one of the mythical great cities, or Tollans, referred to in later Mesoamerican literature. The city may have had the most diverse population in the Maya world, a factor that could have contributed to the variety of architectural styles at the site.
