After weeks of controversy over the inauguration of a statue of Poseidon, the Greek god of the sea, on Progreso beach, another statue was inaugurated this Friday night in Telchac Puerto, that of Chaac, the Mayan deity of water and rain.
The new figure of Chaac is six meters high and weighs 800 kilos.
It is located on the Telchac dock, a few meters from the main park, and is intended to contribute to a greater impact on the arrival of tourists.
The cost of its elaboration was 400 thousand pesos, but it was not money from the public treasury, but rather it was a donation from an artist, who for the moment has not wanted to reveal his identity.
Many people and entire families have taken advantage of this night to take a souvenir photo with Chaac.
