Clapping at the base of the El Castillo pyramid (Temple of Kukulcán) in Chichén Itzá, Mexico, produces a unique, high-pitched echo that sounds like the chirping of a Quetzal, a sacred Maya bird. This acoustic phenomenon is caused by the 91 steps on each side acting as sound diffusers, reflecting the sound waves to produce a chirp. Here’s my attempt at demonstrating the famous hand-clapping, bird-chirp echo at Chichen Itza. #méxico #foryou 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽 | Cathy Maguire
