Stop At: Zona Arqueologica Tlatelolco, Eje Central Lazaro Cardenas, Mexico City 06900 Mexico

Located in a valley rich in natural resources, Teotihuacan was the seat of power of one of the most influential Mesoamerican societies in the political, economic, commercial, religious and cultural, whose features permanently marked the peoples of the Mexican highlands, transcending time and coming to us with the same strength and greatness with which its builders planned it.
