The ancient Aztec city of Teotihuacan, located about half an hour northeast of Mexico City, is home to some of the world's most iconic ruins. Teotihuacan, often referred to as the City of the Gods, was the capital of a powerful empire that dominated central and southern Mexico from the 1st to the 7th centuries CE. The ruins of Teotihuacan are a testament to the power and sophistication of the city's people, whose remains still stand two millennia later. The vast complex of archaeological sites includes the extraordinary Pyramid of the Sun, the towering Pyramid of the Moon, the Avenue of the Dead, and many other iconic structures. For modern day visitors, the experience of roaming the monumental sites and monuments of Teotihuacan and exploring the exhibits in the on-site museum provide a fascinating peek into the elaborate rituals and art of ancient Mesoamerica.
