[ENG/ESP] Pyramids of Teotihuacan / México

Hola Hivers,

_{Recorrido urbano destino terminal de autobuses del norte}

Así que bien temprano y luego de un paseo en metrobús hasta la estación “La Raza” la cual se encuentra entre las líneas cinco (5) y tres (3) del Metro de la ciudad de México nos encontrábamos a una sola estación del terminal de Autobuses del Norte, donde ni siquiera nos dio tiempo de desayunar cuando ya se encontraba un autobús disponible para viajar a nuestro destino.

En un recorrido con hermosos paisajes urbanos y rurales en menos de una hora ya estábamos muy cerca de Teotihuacán. Al llegar a este increíble lugar consigues el museo de Teotihuacán, un centro cultural y comercial muy limpio y organizado.

[ENG] I can not hide my passion for pre-Hispanic history in Mexico, on my trip to this beautiful country I had the pleasure of visiting one of the most mythical and fascinating places I have been able to travel, Teotihuacan is an incredible place where contact with history, religion and culture are mixed with the fascinating and beautiful nature.

Our tour started at the Hotel Mallorca, where we were very well taken care of, the truth is that they were very kind and attentive during the whole stay. In that area, downtown Mexico City, there are many places that offer a tour of the most emblematic sites of the city - if you don't know the city well, it seems to me the most recommendable -, however, we preferred to do the tour on our own because we thought it would be much more exciting that way.

So early in the morning and after a ride on the Metrobus to "La Raza" station, which is located between lines five (5) and three (3) of the Mexico City Metro, we were only one station away from the bus terminal of Autobuses del Norte, where we didn't even have time to have breakfast when there was already a bus available to travel to our destination.
In a trip with beautiful urban and rural landscapes in less than an hour we were already very close to Teotihuacan. Upon arrival you get the museum of Teotihuacan, a very clean and organized cultural and commercial center.

Entramos por el primero de los tres accesos disponibles para conocer este maravilloso lugar, al llegar al área arqueológica, lo primero que visitamos fue la ciudadela, uno de los sitios más notables de Teotihuacán, el cual alberga la pirámide de la Serpiente Emplumada entre otros edificios ancestrales e históricos.

Arriving at the archaeological area the first thing we visited was the citadel, one of the most remarkable sites of Teotihuacan, which houses the pyramid of the Feathered Serpent among other ancient and historical buildings.

Teotihuacan or Teotihuacan translates as "place where men become gods", or Teo uacan "City of the Sun" is the name given to what was one of the largest pre-Hispanic cities in America. It is an incredible, mysterious and fascinating place. Where one of the largest archaeological areas and monuments of Mexico is located.

Para llegar a las grandes Pirámides recorrimos un sendero que lleva por nombre la calzada de los Muertos la cual nos condujo directamente a una de las maravillas arqueológicas de Teotihuacán, “La Pirámide del Sol”, la cual cuenta con sesenta y tres metros de altura.

To get to the great Pyramids, we took a path called "La Calzada de los Muertos" which led us directly to one of the archaeological wonders of Teotihuacan, "The Pyramid of the Sun", which is sixty-three meters high.

Cuando sales de Teotihuacán sientes que eres otra persona, se siente como si consiguieras algo que no poseías antes de llegar a este maravilloso lugar, definitivamente llegar allí fue un regalo de lo alto.

Espero pronto pueda volver a visitar este maravilloso lugar.

When you leave Teotihuacan you feel like you are another person, it feels like you got something you didn't possess before arriving to this wonderful place, definitely getting there was a gift from above.


I hope soon to be able to visit this wonderful place again.
