WELCOME TO THE PLANETARIUM OF COZUMEL

CHA'AN KA'AN

About Us

"Cha'an Ka'an" in Maya means: “to observe or to enjoy the sky”, through the symbolism behind the logo, the moon representing Ixchel, mayan godess of the moon, and Itzamná, Lord of the Skies, the Sun and Ixchel’s lover; continuing with the building, resembling a Swallow, Cozumel’s symbol, Cha’an Ka’an was carefully planned to have a deep bond with the Island.
