1. Teotihuacan<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n
A MUST. If you didn’t visit Teotihuacan on your Mexico City stopover, you have to stop over again! Teotihuacan is known as the place where men become gods. This site was an important city in terms of religion and politics in the pre-Columbian era. You will be truly amazed when you walk down the Calzada de los Muertos to the Great Pyramids of the Sun and the Moon. Our Travel Specialist Heather took the dawn hot air balloon ride over the ruins and highly recommends this awe-inspiring experience! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
