Best places: Archaeological sites in Ciudad Nezahualcoyotl, Mexico

Museum showcasing archaeological finds & exhibits related to the Aztec civilization.

👍👍 Tlatelolco is a free archaeological site about 3 km north of Tenochitlan. Cuahltemoc, the last Aztec emperor was crowned and staged the last battle against the Spanish here. Just outside the archaeological site is a church built in 1608 with materials from the Tlatelolco pyramids. In the archaeologi...

👍 Historic and proud place for Mexicans; , since the Aztecs left much of their culture, although later the Spaniards would come and bury it under the temples and constructions they made on top of the Aztec developments, this temple is so large that they are still making new discoveries. If you go to...

👍👍 Hidden gem with hardly any crowds even on a weekend, amazing views and free entry- possibly open 24 hours. Here is all the info I wish I had before going but was unable to find from any review, website, blog or in videos about the place. The main access is from a street called Nezahualpilli, there a...

Centuries-old settlement featuring a primitive, circular pyramid plus a museum with old artifacts.

👍 Es realmente un excelente lugar para correr y hacer ejercicio en general. Si los días sábados te das cuenta de que hace mucho viento 90% seguro que el día domingo podrás ver toda la ciudad de México. También venden alimentos nada ostentoso. Todos usamos cubre bocas, solo me lo quito en ocasiones par...

👍👍 These are 2 sites (not next to each other as suggested by Google Maps, but perhaps 2-3 minutes on foot) that could be seen from the outside. At the moment, the offices are working but they are not permitting entry into the museum or the gated areas. However, the only difference is that it's more dif...

👍👍 This archaeological site is made up of several parts and even a place known as La Muralla. With a bit of luck you can find the archaeologists at work and get a close look at their methods and procedures. There are foundations and pyramidal structures.

🫤 Disappointing. I went today at 1pm, the person in charge reluctantly accepted my UNAM credential, she did not let me take photos and I urged her to leave me because I had to go somewhere... I am a historian and it is the worst place That I visited...

👍 Para mí el lugar es súper importante pero no le doy las 5 estrellas porque está verdaderamente descuidado y sucio por las autoridades arqueológicas de la alcaldía y de la ciudad habría que ponerle más atención a estás piedras que cuentan mucho de la historia de toda la zona lacustre de la cuidad.

👍👍 The Los Reyes Acaquilpan Archaeological Zone is an excellent option that you can do in the municipality, the entrance is free. It is wonderful to be able to meet our ancestors and here is the perfect place. It is a 15-minute walk from the Los Reyes subway. When you arrive there is the gate and it s...

👍👍 The Ehecatl hill is part of the great Sierra de Guadalupe and is what gives its name to the municipality of Ecatepec, "The Hill of the Wind". The entrances that I know of are located in the Izcalli Ecatepec neighborhood and in the Ehecatl Ecological Park. It is ideal for practicing sports such as: W...
