Αξιοθέατα και μέρη για επίσκεψη Μεξικό - Top 20

Teotihuacan is definitely worth a visit.

A truly magnificent complex. The Pyramid of the Sun, the Pyramid of the Moon, and many more. The steps are quite challenging; you have to pay close attention, especially when descending.

A monument depicting the passage of Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés into the Valley of Mexico in 1520, mounted on a roundabout that provides access in several directions: Tlamacas (closed since the 1990s), Izta-Popo Refuge, Xalitzintla, Iztaccíhuatl, and San Pedro Nexapa. Its now-classic "Paso de Cortés" sign is a place where you can take a souvenir photo (of the achievement), which is currently obscure due to the countless stickers pasted by people from various cycling, motorcycling, mountaineering, and other clubs. Here, in addition to the beautiful view, you'll also find plenty of food on weekends; during the week, it's difficult to find supplies. The cold is usually very high, so always be prepared for the changes in mountain weather.

A good route for training and exploring. The climb toward Juchitepec is very good, or if you prefer the easy exit, the downhill route toward Temamantla or Cocotitlán, and from there, a flat route to Chalco. There are more climbs if you return toward Amecameca. It all depends on where you started your ride. Those of us coming from Xochimilco face more climbs. The pavement is in poor condition, but without so many potholes, the vibration from your handlebars won't stop for several kilometers. The view of the volcanoes is wonderful. The effort against the wind will be another challenge that adds to the effort. There are many places to refuel. It's a well-traveled route, and you'll find many cyclists along the way. The central plaza is pretty and well-maintained, with its flowerbeds, the clock tower, statues, and its kiosk.

A wonderful place to visit, it's currently easier to access by vehicle (to a certain extent) and with parking. However, if you're someone who enjoys climbing mountains over 4,000 meters from the bottom, I'm sure you'll love the challenge. Don't forget that these are mountains, and weather changes can happen at unexpected times, so it's best to be prepared for anything, bringing hydration and food necessary for the effort and the weather. In the craters, you'll find two bodies of fresh water that form the Laguna del Sol and Laguna de la Luna. In the 1990s, you could dive at altitude in the icy waters. Visibility is very low, so it was done with instruments and good orientation, a dry suit, or a wetsuit for icy waters. Currently, only research personnel can do so with a special permit, as it is an ecological and archaeological reserve. Admission is fee-based, and on weekends, it's very crowded, so be patient and always respect the place. Leave it better than you found it, and enjoy! You can also get there by gravel bike or mountain bike, but achieving this requires good training due to the incline and altitude. Always remember: Respect the Mountain.
