Ancient Pyramids of Teotihuacan
Teotihuacan is an ancient Mesoamerican city located in the Valley of Mexico's sub-valley. It is most recognized today as the location of many of the most architecturally noteworthy Mesoamerican pyramids constructed in the pre-Columbian Americas, including the Pyramid of the Sun and Pyramid of the Moon. One of the most enigmatic Mesoamerican mysteries is the Teotihuacan Pyramids. Teotihuacan Mexico, often known as The City of Gods, was named a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1987.
The Teotihuacan pyramids in the complex contain many elements, but the four principal architectural highlights of Teotihuacan are the Pyramid of the Sun, Pyramid of the Moon, Citadel (Ciudadela), and Temple of Feathered Serpent (Quetzalcoatl). The Pyramid of the Moon, located near the complex's northern extremity, is the second-largest pyramid in Teotihuacan. The largest and most popular structure is the Pyramid of the Sun. Many archaeologists, historians, and experts think a god was formerly honored on top of the Pyramid of the Sun. Ciudadela is a submerged plaza with 15-hectare courtyards that can accommodate the whole population of the city.
Getting to the top of the pyramids is a unique experience since you can see the entire complex with spectacular vistas. You may combine your air balloon flight with a tour of the facility by bicycle. After the hot air balloon flight, you may have brunch at a neighboring Mexican restaurant. Because you must be picked up early for this, you may take an hour of relaxation at breakfast. After breakfast, you will begin your bike trip and see the Teotihuacan pyramids. How fantastic your experience will be when you first try to visit one of Mexico City's UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
