The Mexico map is full of amazing historic locations, but where is Ek' Balam in Forza Horizon 5?
This location is full of wonders and well worth exploring. It's also the location of the Japanese Automotive Spring Festival Playlist. But where can you find it? Let's find out.
Where is Ek' Balam in Forza Horizon 5?
Ek' Balam is located south of the map in the Gran Pantano region. Driving through the dense jungle reveals an array of ancient Aztek ruins, making for some great photo opportunities.
If you don’t have Fast Travel, Horizon Apex is the nearest Outpost in the Pantano De Le Sava region.
You can find Ek' Balam by driving to the pointer on the map below.

Ek' Balam also features in the El Camino Horizon Story chapter where you hunt down the Statue Of Tlaloc.
Where are the stone lanterns in Ek' Balam?
To complete the Japanese Automotive Spring Festival Playlist, you need to photograph Honda or Acura next to the stone lanterns in the secret cave near Ek' Balam.

These are located away from the main dirt paths of the area. You can find them near an XP board, just to the right of the main buildings.
You will find them at our player marker in the photo below. Snap a photo, and you'll be rewarded with the Too soon, Junior Forza Link.
