Very interesting rock placement, precision cutting and connections that are impossible today but done centuries before Christ. It would be a real game changer knowing how and actually who accomplished this. Some of the rock foundations slabs must weigh hundreds of tons but we're placed like pieces of a puzzle with connecting features, that prevented these huge slabs from separating from some extreme force, that make you wonder what exactly this was designed for and by whom. A time machine would help!It was perfect! Everything was super punctual and our guide, Angel, is such a nice, acknowledged and experient person, that he became a friend!
