There are a lot of Mayan ruins in Honduras, the southernmost Mayan region, including some really cool carvings of kings and glyphs. Apparently they were pretty much overcome by the jungle when they were "discovered". Well, the locals always know they were there. Earthquakes had also taken their toll on them, collapsing most of the roofs and a lot of the stairs.
But the stone carvings are great! Faces with headdresses, figures telling stories, kings, masks, free-standing stone stelae with ornate decorations... it goes on and on. Amazing!
Carvings of macaws decorate the ballcourts, possibly representing the patron of the kings. Or maybe just a mascot? :-)
An image search for Copán is rich.
