The Ministry of Culture and Sports invites the general public to be part of the commemoration of the end of the cycle Oxlajuj B`aktun and witness the birth of a new era. Come to know and live the true meaning of 13 b'aktun symbolizing change, improvement and balance.
 
It is good to remember important events that happened during this era such as the beginning of the search for a harmonious world and the creation of one of the most accurate calendars that humanity has seen, that of the Mayan civilization.
