Nuns' Quadrangle - South Building

The inner quadrangle is entered by the large arched entrance in the south building, which is the second oldest building on the site. The arch lies on an axis with the ball court which is situated in front of the quadrangle and is largely in ruins. There are eight rooms both to the right and left of the central walkway, of which one half face outwards, while the other half face north into the inner quadrangle. The frieze over the doors has sculptures of Maya huts which stand out above panels of latticework.
