Ruins Near Mexico City

There are several ruin complexes within and close to the city. Fifty kilometers away are the ruins at Teotihuacán. It was a very holy place for the indigenous cultures: according to local legend, it was the birthplace of Gods and the fifth sun, which began the modern age. The site had been abandoned by the time the Mexica people arrived to central Mexico, but they, too, held the place to be sacred. The Pyramid of the sun is one of the most impressive in the whole country.
