Overview of your Mexico city tour:

In the beautiful setting of Chapultepec Park, the architect Pedro Ramirez Vazquez created his masterwork: The Anthropology Museum of Mexico City, home to the most important collection of pre-Columbian art in the World. Together we will explore the history of ancient Mexico from its earliest beginnings to the clash of civilizations that occurred with the arrival of the Spanish conquistadors. We will admire the monumental basalt heads that the Olmec culture created 3000 years ago in the rain forests of Mesoamerica. I'll tell you about the adventurous cracking of the Maya code and help you to explore the history and culture of the Aztec Empire. I'll make sure you understand the meaning of the Aztec Sun Stone for Mexico's national identity, and that Gods like Quetzalcoatl, Tlaloc and Xochipilli will be no longer be like strangers for you. This comprehensive tour will help you to understand and appreciate the 3, 000 year old civilization of Mesoamerica and its importance for Mexico today. Let's explore!
