Nohoch Mul

Nohoch Mul is the main pyramid of the Maya city of Cobá in Quintana Roo, Mexico. About 42 metres high, it rises in stepped terraces to a small temple at the top decorated with descending-god figures in Postclassic style, similar to those at Tulum. It is one of the tallest ancient structures in the northern Yucatán peninsula.
