Uxmal is a large pre-Columbian ruined city of the Maya civilization in the state of Yucatán, Mexico. It is 78 km south of Mérida, Yucatán, or 110 km from that city on Highway 261 towards Campeche, Campeche), 15 km south-southeast of the town of Muna and in the municipality of Santa Elena.

Uxmal is pronounced /uːʃˈmɑːl/ oosh-MAHL in English. The place name is Pre-Columbian and it is usually assumed to be an archaic Maya language phrase meaning "Built Three Times", although some scholars[which?] of the Maya language dispute this derivation. The currently used names for many of the structures were given by the Spanish. These names are not only not native, but they also do not specify the actual purposes of the buildings.

Uxmal holds some of the most complex and beautiful examples of the regional Puuc-style architecture, and its magnificent pyramids and structures make it a popular tourist destination.
