Summary They begin their journey in a town called Palenque that resembles ancient Mayan towns. A local priest has written a testimony about hidden ruins in the jungle near the town, which still remains a mystery. The main symbol of the town is an ancient Mayan king. As they get closer to the ancient city center, rubble of old walls and platforms become frequent till they reach the temple which is a little isolated from the rest of the town. The building's old structure clearly indicates that of the Palenque architect. This is the first building to be erected with a high vault, and with ventilation windows to allow for circulation of air inside the building. After a long jungle walk, they go for a traditional massage to rejuvenate from exhaustion. After a relaxing massage, they visit a UNESCO World Heritage archaeological site, which consists of funeral pyramids. They continue their journey to a set of well-preserved temples that were built by the oldest son of Kinich Janaab Pakal and heir to the throne of the Mayan Kingdom. At the end of this episode, they witness the yearly equinox rituals by musicians and dancers that follow the ancient traditions.
