Was just there last week and everything has been roped off.

I've also read that you are now no longer able to climb the pyramid in Uxmal. (I have done both pyramids on previous trips, but I am taking a friend who had never been to Mexico. He was really looking forward to climbing the pyramids.) I have also read in one of my guidebooks, that you are no longer allowed to climb el Templo de los Guerreros (Temple of the Warriors) at Chichen Itza. Does anyone know if that is true?
