Step back in time at Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5, one of the best preserved examples of Mesoamerican civilization in modern-day Mexico. The enormous complex was, in its heyday, a city of more than 125,000 people, making it one of the largest hubs on the planet during its era. Pay attention to the deliberate, measured way in which the city was planned, with importance placed on the location of specific temples and pyramids. Take a guide with you to fully appreciate the city's history. Also beware of aggressive souvenir vendors at the entrance to the complex.

  • Magical place to e and see! Ruins are everywhere and the people are so friendly! I was walking by myself and didn't feel threatened at all walking alone. Make sure to take a few days to walk the avenue of the dead to get the experience of the place!!! Highly recommend the balloon ride!
  • What a great experience. So much to see. We planned about 4 hours but we could have easily done more. I wish the larger temples were still open to climb, but they are closed at this time. Parking and entry fees are reasonable. You can easily go on your own or with a tour group. The temple of Quetzalcoatl was open to climb and also then get up close to the intricate carvings. Awesome. There are multiple vendors for tourist stuff, food and other items. Bathrooms were in acceptable condition. We got there early (8am) it was quiet then and vendors were still setting up. By 9am, the place was humming! Bring a jacket and a hat. If you don't have a hat they have 20000 there that they will try to sell you! 😆
