Opinião do Guia Michelin
This ball court forms a long rectangle bordered to the south by a large building which acted as a tribune, with the platform of building 5 marking the northern end. The court bears the most beautiful decoration found on this type of building, with six sculpted panels running along the walls which describe several stages in these ceremonial games. The four end panels represent the ball players. In each, the figure of Death, represented by a skull, can be seen observing the game from one side, evoking the sacrificial dimension of the games.
