A fleet of new top-quality jets, complimentary in-flight services including food and beverages( alcoholic and nonalcoholic) make AeroMexico the perfect choice for travel to this and other sun and fun destinations.
Located 40kms northeast of Metropolitan Mexico City, one of the largest mysteries, the Teotihuacán pyramids of the Sun and Moon, and the surrounding buildings, sit sun-drenched in a conservation area. The site is referred to as the‘ birhplace of the Gods’, a name that was given by the Nahuatl-speaking Aztecs, reflecting Nahua creation myths that were said to occur in Teotihuacán.
The site was constructed around 100BC as the centre of a society that had approximately 125,000 inhabitants. The city was abandoned around 550AD, without any indication as to why. Today, it is also the most visited archaeological site in Mexico.
