Templo del Dios Descendente

Tulum


Templo del Dios Descendente in the Tulum Ruins is named after the relief figure of a descending god, aka the Diving God. Look for it above the building's door. The image, perhaps the most iconic of Tulum, is associated with the highly revered god of bees. At the spring equinox, a ray of sunlight shines through the temple, aligning perfectly under the image.
