Teotihuacan and Sanctuary of our Lady of Guadalupe

We will drive to the impressive archaeological site of Teotihuacan, located 50km northeast of Mexico City. On the way, we make a stop at the Plaza de las Tres Culturas, where I will explain to you how three cultures converge: Aztec, Spanish, and contemporary Mexican. We will continue to the Basilica de Guadalupe, Latin America's most revered religious shrine. It is here where the Virgin of Guadalupe is said to have appeared before an indigenous man named Juan Diego in 1531, and an image of her was miraculously emblazoned on his cloak. I will tell you about the little details in the fabric that make this item so special. . . We then drive for another hour to Teotihuacan, one of the most impressive cities of the ancient world, held sacred by the Aztecs. We will explore its temples, palaces, and pyramids, including the Quetzalpapalotl Palace, the Temple of the Feathered Conches, the Pyramid of the Moon, and the immense Pyramid of the Sun.
