Brief Description
"A prime example of a Mayan sanctuary of the classical period, Palenque was at its height between AD 500 and 700, when its influence extended throughout the basin of the Usumacinta River. The elegance and craftsmanship of the buildings, as well as the lightness of the sculpted reliefs with their Mayan mythological themes, attest to the creative genius of this civilization."

"帕伦克城是古希腊罗马时期玛雅人的圣地，其鼎盛时期大约在公元500年到700年之间，对整个乌苏马辛塔河盆地都具有广泛影响力。该遗址中典雅精致的建筑和体现玛雅人神话主题的浮雕都证明了他们是创造文明的天才。"
