Naj Tunich means "Stone over the humid area".  Replicas of the paintings on the Naj Tunich Caves are being exhibited in another cave located 460 meters away from the original cave. Naj Tunich located in Poptun, Peten was discovered two decades ago but was closed to the public to protect the paintings from vandalism and to treat the paintings against fungus.  With this exhibition turists can appreciated the Mayan representations with include petroglyphs, human faces and a representation of the ages of spitituality.
