The Great Temple / Great Pyramid

History
The Great Temple, or Great Pyramid, is a nine-tiered stepped pyramid with a broken overall shape, about 30 meters high and 80 meters long on its north side. Steps on the northern side lead to a platform supporting a building called the Macaw Temple. Masks decorating the corners are more rounded than others at Uxmal. The construction dates to the eighth century.
