Of the different buildings that make up this palatial complex, several vault tops have been recovered, they are painted and represent partial calendrical dates from 906 to 907 AD, which is consistent with the Chan Chahk’ahk Nalajaw period of government.
The formal entrance, the hierarchy of the structures through the different elevations, and the absence of domestic elements suggest that this space corresponds to a royal palace with administrative and non-residential functions, where the ruling group must have had meetings to collect the tribute, make decisions, dictate sentences, among other activities.

From that point of view, it seems that there are no windows in the hotel.
I love the red building. It seems an UFO! 🙂

What a strange hotel building! I wouldn’t want to stay in a “world’s tallest” hotel.

The Burj does look oddly windowless, but better than those all glass towers. I love the colour of the Swedish museum – and it goes well with its neighbour.

Love the Dutch pink building with its little windmill. I have some maxi cards of John Bauer’s fairy tale art so I would love to go inside that building.
