This is taken from the top of El Castillo facing north over the courtyards and other structures of Xunantunich. The height of El Castillo should be obvious from the size of the people in the plaza in the foreground. According to our excellent tour guide, this is the tallest man made structure in Belize. According to Wikipedia one of the structures at Caracal is taller. Either way the tallest Mayan structures dwarf the tallest modern era buildings.
