The Cacaxtla Archeological Site

Se visita la zona arqueológica de Cacaxtla: conocerás las ruinas y pirámides que nos describen la larga ocupación y el mayor esplendor sostenido entre los años 650 a 900 D.C. por parte de las etnias Olmecas-Xicalancas ocupantes de la zona de Cacaxtla. Entre sus vestigios destaca el Gran Basamento, un gran complejo arquitectónico de estructuras superpuestas y adosadas que presentan sofisticadas pinturas murales, únicas en su clase, en los llamados Templo de Venus, Templo Rojo, Mural de la Batalla y Pórtico A. Debido a la necesidad de proteger las valiosas pinturas, en la década de 1980 se colocó una amplia techumbre de alrededor de 10,000 m2 sobre la sección medular del Gran Basamento.

Admission Ticket Included

Basilica de Nuestra Senora de Ocotlan

Fundada a raíz de la aparición de la Virgen María al indígena Juan Diego Bernardino en 1541, es considerada una de las máximas expresiones de la arquitectura barroca del siglo XVIII. Además del Camarín de la Virgen, de estilo barroco indígena.
