Teotihuacán

Được phát hành: 14.02.2019

It is time for the first impressions of Mexico's indigenous culture. We decide to visit Teotihuacán, which is located slightly north of Mexico City. We bypass the metropolitan area with its approximately 20 million inhabitants. You can't see much either way. The smog is dramatic. It makes the local particulate matter debate look like a barbecue fire.

We're lucky and get the last parking space in the city, about 3 km away from the archaeological site.

Since we saw in the late afternoon that you practically have to queue up on the pyramids, we are already on site at eight in the morning. And indeed, there is hardly anyone there. Even the numerous shops and stalls only open when we are already leaving again.

The Sun and the Moon Pyramids are impressive. But the museum is even more so. It's truly fantastic to see the craftsmanship that existed at the time.

The positive image is slightly tarnished by a presumably "fake" member of the Municipal Police who wants to check our tickets when climbing the Sun Pyramid and exchanges them for punched ones. Mica smells a rat and reports the whole thing. Actually, the elusive gentleman will probably sell the tickets privately.
