Photos of Mayan Masks at Palenque, Mexico

I spent a little time in Mexico and I really loved it. I visited Palenque for a few days to see the Mayan site there. Every Mayan site I have been to has such a different feel and very unique architecture. These are photos from Palenque. For more on my travels visit my travel blog at www.ladythetramp.com
