Zona Arqueologica Teotihuacan

The Pyramid of the Sun and the Pyramid of the Moon dominate the ruins of what was once the sixth largest city in the world.

Pros- incredible pyramids that you are still able to climb and get amazing views ! Cons- loads of people especially if you arrive after lunch Tips- arrive before 10 am; climb Sun Pyramid first ( to avoid the massive crowds and heat); then climb Moon Pyramid; bring water and sunscreen and a hat; you will spend about 4-6 hours if you have lunch at a local restaurant; no need for a guide if you have access to internet; check out sightdoing.net - How to visit Teotihuacan without a tour by Becky. Great website with step by step instructions including photos.

The great Stupa Bon for world peace. The vision is to be a space where people can go to learn, to investigate, to translate, to edit, to write and to heal, a place where you may have experiences for spiritual development and for the soul grow. The Stupa can be visited from Monday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Every Sunday at 12:30 am. There are meditation guided.

Teotihuacan Pyramids

Reviewed By leahau - Regina, Canada

Teotihuacán pyramids are incredible. Pyramid of the sun abs pyramid of the moon can both be climbed, as well as some smaller pyramids. The steps are rough and very steep and sometimes uneven. They have hand rails on most sections of the climb up and down. Beautiful views from both pyramids. There is also locals selling their handicrafts at the entrance and exit as well as within the site. I didn’t notice any water being sold so being your own. It can get very hot. There are bathrooms near the entrance. When we arrived we were asked if we wanted a free history tour. We followed a lady in her motorbike to a little store where someone talked about the agave plant and we sampled some tequila. Then we were asked to look through their store. — avoid this if you do not want to purchase anything or get the “history” which wasn’t actually given. Highly recommend this visit. It’s a ways out of Mexico City, but worth the drive.

Parroquia del Divino Salvador

Reviewed By eugeni0gp - Mexico City, Mexico

The convent is in an ongoing restoration process. There are several places were you can appreciate the original frescoes and how beautiful it will look once they finish. It's worth taking 30 minutes and getting to know the place.
