The Templo Dios del Viento, or the Temple of the God of the Wind, stands above the water at the Mayan city of Tulum in Mexico. It was interesting to visit the Mayan ruins and to learn about the different functions of the different buildings. And if you lived in a polytheistic culture, you would definitely want to treat the god of the winds nicely so that he wouldn’t blow up a hurricane and its strong winds on your village by the sea.
