Robert Brady's house is an absolute MUST if you are in Cuernavaca . It was an unexpected delight and a fantastic eclectic collection of his treasures beautifully and colourfully displayed. Each room is a delight and a surprise and there are excellent notes in English in every room explaining the paintings and collection.

Wow. I yhought we were reasonably fit, but had to search for my breath on the way up. Stopped a number of times, and wasn't sure I was going to make it. It was all worth the effort, but my legs were sore for days after. Tip: take cash up with you as it costs (55 pesos each the day we were there) to enter the pyramid area at the top of the climb.

Xochicalco was the oldest known fortress in Middle America and an important religious center.

After visiting over the years many archaeological sites of different cultures in Mexico, it's always a pleasure to return to Xochicalco (pronounced 'Sotchycalco') located about half an hour's drive south of the city of Cuernavaca, in the State of Morelos. What makes this site quite unique among others is its location on a large hill that overlooks an open valley where the hill itself is an integral part of the archaelogical site. There are a number of platforms distributed at different levels of the hill that hold either a ceremonial center, the remains of living quarters, or the ancient ball courts. At the top is the temple dedicated to Quetzalcoatl, the feathered serpent, with bas-reliefs sculptured on all four walls of the ceremonial center. It's fun to climb the various wide staircases leading from one level to another, stop at each and enjoy the view of varying landscapes, which may include trees, agaves, and other assorted greenery. You can descend the archeological zone from the opposite side you entered, so there's no need to backtrack on your visit. Xochicalco reached its heigth around 1,000 AD when the Toltecs were the dominant culture in Mexico's central valley, although it would be a far-out generalization to name the city-state's inhabitants 'Toltecs'. They were skilled merchants and traded with distant civilizations in all cardinal directions, including the Mayans in the now far away Yucatan, the Zapotecs and Mixtecs to the south in the present State of Oaxaca, as well as the various cultures in the central valley of Mexico (now Mexico City) or the Gulf Coast. To start your visit of Xochicalco, don't miss the not-too-long exhibits, maps, and explanations in the welcoming pavilion at the entrance to the archaeological zone. It will make your visit that much more rewarding. Enjoy!

Only hopping at full throttle on the weekend, this is a classic multipurpose market. Families shopping for food and household supplies, and visitors exploring, this is a great place to see the full range of Mexican life. Lots of stands selling standard souvenirs. Around the edges are some more selective stores. Fresh fruit, pastries and lots of tortillas for sale too. Fruit was wonderful.
