The Pre-Hispanic City of Teotihuacan was one of the largest urban centers in the ancient world, which came to concentrate a population of more than 100,000 inhabitants at its time of maximum splendor. Located in a valley rich in natural resources,

Teotihuacan was the seat of power of one of the most influential Mesoamerican societies in the political, economic, commercial, religious and cultural spheres, whose features permanently marked the peoples of the Mexican highlands, crossing time and reaching us with the same strength and greatness with which its builders planned it.

The recognition of the site as cultural heritage is universal, since since 1987 it is part of the UNESCO World Heritage List
