This is a must while visiting Mexico City. It was on my list and one of the only reasons i visited…read moreMexico City. There are 2 pyramids here; The pyramid of the sun and Pyramid of the Moon. You are no longer allowed to climb on the Pyramid of the Sun (the larger of the 2) and only half way up on the Pyramid of the moon. The stairs are kind of steep so i suggest climbing down sidewards and leaning into the pyramid or walking down backwards. Its very cool and the place is large with other structures to see. There are also many different exit and entrances; just inside exit 5 there is a museum which i think explains much of the history of it. so you can probably skip a guide and just look in there and read a bit about it. Make sure to walk past the Pyramid of the sun (opposite the pyramid of the moon) to see the Temple of Quetzalcoatl. Most people miss it. There are people selling idols made of obsidian (volcanic glass) which was what knives were made of to sacrifice people. You can always haggle with them, the price is not set and there are many vendors so you can probably get a pretty good price. I was very impressed with the scale and size of the place. I'm always blown away with how old things are and how large and detailed things were. You realize how skilled they were back then. Very impressive. Tips: They tear the corner of your ticket when you enter and give it to you to keep in case you exit the wrong place and need to go back in (there are multiple exits and entrances). The place is hot and there is very little shade so bring sun screen, a large hat or umbrella and water. And as in most places in Mexico there may not be toilet paper in the bathrooms and they may charge for it as you enter so 1. bring loose change in case they charge, 2. take the roll of toilet paper from your hotel room and stash it in your backpack. Sundays are most crowded because it's free for locals. Mondays are also crowded because the museums are closed. So Tuesday thru Friday are the best days to go. While taking an Uber around in the city we asked how much it would be to take us to Teohihuacan and back the next day. Its much better than taking a tour bus that stops at each hotel picking up multiple people. If you do so you also have to leave when the bus leaves and it might be too long or too short a time. If you hire an Uber you can leave whenever you want.

It can get very hot, so bring a hat and sunglasses for protection. I also recommended bringing water to stay hydrated throughout the visit. There are vendors near the entrance selling souvenirs and snacks, which is convenient if you want to grab something.

The hike is not easy so be prepare to either make many stops or skip it all together. If you are fit then it should be a breeze and no big deal. After the hike it pays off since the view from above it is awesome. On one side there is no fence but on the other side there is a fence so you can feel safe. On the side where the pyramid sits, that's the side with no fence so just be careful. On the top of the hill, you can buy water or other liquids so you can rehydrate and be ready to walk down. And just so you know, just because you are going down the stairs, it does not mean it will be easy. Uneven stairs and some of the spots there are no stairs, there are only rocks. But it is worth it. Hope you visit and enjoy as well.

The entire complex is a joy to explore and you can currently climb the stairs of Luna for better views and pictures. However, you cannot climb the larger Sol piramide... only picture opportunities that are worth it. There is no shade, so make sure you plan accordingly as it can get hot. Please come and create your own adventure.

This place is pretty big and you have to do a lot of walking. I was hot and dehydrated by the time it took us to finish. We spent close to two hours roaming around, and keep in mind there is no shade. The pyramids were pretty cool but it can get boring quickly. I was hoping to see an Alien but no luck:( maybe next time, hehe.

It is a botanical garden and THE BIGGEST STAINED GLASS HOUSE in the world, it absolutely lives up to it's name. There is a fee to get in, but very nominal. However, before even getting inside, just inside the entrance you'll find an enormous Orange hued, stained glass mural, reminiscent of Captain Marvel, or a rising Phoenix. With the spring equinox, the sun hits perfectly from the outside, through the stained glass and portrays a perfect replica on the botanical garden floor. The stain glass murals might even rival that of the Sistine chapel in the way stories are portrayed, in my opinion. Be warned though, since this is a botanical garden, it tends to be a bit humid to keep a variety of landscapes and over abundance of plants comfortable. Also, there might be the occasional "influencer" snapping photos and doing multiple runs of "live" dancing. Anyways, I digress. It's great for families. Parking is no bueno as we had to park across the street. This is a downtown area after all. Highly recommend if I'm the area!
