Lilly0718Before the Spaniards invaded Mexico, the land was a civilization that had been bred for thousands of years, and Olmec, Maya, Teotivacan, Toltec, and Aztec, located near Mexico City, were among them. The Teotivacan civilization began around 200 BC, and is located about the present-day central Mexico, an ancient Indian civilization that existed at the same time as the Mayan civilization. The Teotihuacans built a city of about 50,000 people between the CE and 150 years, making it the earliest urban hierarchy in the entire Americas, and also built many pyramids. Today Teotihuacan is 50 kilometers from Mexico City, about an hour's drive away, and contains some of the largest pyramid structures built in the pre-Columbus Americas - the Pyramid of the Sun, built around the 2nd century AD, the third largest pyramid in the world. The square tower is 225 meters × 222 meters in size, and the 5-story tower is 63 meters in height. The east of the Sun Pyramid, the north is the Moon Pyramid, which is built about 200 years later than the Sun Pyramid. The tower is 150 meters × 120 meters in size, and the 4-story tower is 46 meters high and the volume is 380,000 cubic meters. There are also many small pyramids around, symbolizing the stars. Throughout the complex is the Death Road, which is also the essence of Mexican culture. Unlike the Egyptian pyramids, Teotihuacan is not a pharaoh’s tomb, but a city, thought to have been founded around 100 BC, and during its heyday Teotihuacan was the largest city in the Americas during the pre-Columbus period. The Sun Pyramid and the Moon Pyramid are places of sacrifice. I didn't follow the group and called a car directly on uber. From the reforma, 1 hour 799peso, and then let the driver pick it up 2 hours later. Entering the scenic spot, I found a tour guide to explain, generously gave 600 pesos, in addition to introducing the pyramid, but also talked about many local cultures and Spanish cultural conflicts and integration. The biggest benefits: free, no need to wait, high efficiency tips: 1. Mexico's network is not developed, the speed of Mexico City is very bad, it is recommended to download the offline map first. 2. The locals can't speak English, download the translation software first, I will use google translate to communicate with the driver. 3. There is no rental near the pyramid. If the bus arrives at Gate 1 and the return journey is at Gate 2. 4. Uber can't connect. If you rent, you can only find a security or a tour guide. The price is 1500peso. The friend who is going to call must talk to the driver and arrange to return to the city.
