Inside Tikal: The Ancient Heart of the Maya Civilization | FULL DOCUMENTARY

Описание: Thanks to new technologies, discover the ancient Maya city of Tikal, fully remodelled using 3D computer graphics. This amazing feat was possible thanks to recent on-site filming of the ruins together with tremendous postproduction work to create the 3D version of the ancient city and combine it with the filmed images. This successful experience brings the city out of the mists of a bygone era, revealing it in its full splendour.

Hidden away in the jungle of Guatemala, Tikal saw the light of day in the 8th century BC. Inhabited for over a thousand years, the ancient city would encompass up to 12,000 structures and 2 million inhabitants. It reveals its extraordinary temple-pyramids, made using sheer human strength. The North Acropolis, the Mundo Perdido astronomical observatory, the magnificent Temple of the Great Jaguar, and Temple IV, one of the tallest in all Mesoamerica, regain their colours of yesteryear and provide us with a unique testimonial of Maya art and ingenuity.
