Canadian pop star Justin Bieber and his entourage were asked to leave the Mayan archaeological site of Tulum after he apparently tried to climb on to the ruins, a Mexican official said.
Bieber was visiting the seaside ruins on Thursday when the incident occurred.
The official, from the National Institute of Anthropology and History, could not specify which of the site’s structures Bieber had allegedly climbed but said he was “asked to leave”.
Visitors can climb some pre-Hispanic pyramids in Mexico, but officials rope off or place “no entry” signs on some ruins that are considered vulnerable or unstable.
