Teotihuacan, an ancient Mesoamerican city located about 50 kilometers northeast of modern-day Mexico City, is one of Mexico's most iconic and mysterious archaeological sites. Known as the "City of the Gods," Teotihuacan flourished between the 1st and 7th centuries CE and was one of the largest cities in the world at its peak, with a population possibly exceeding 100,000 people. Its name, given by the Aztecs centuries later, reflects the city's profound cultural and spiritual importance.
Teotihuacan is renowned for its grand architectural layout and monumental structures. The Pyramid of the Sun, the Pyramid of the Moon, and the Avenue of the Dead are some of its most famous landmarks. These structures showcase advanced engineering, urban planning, and cosmological alignment. The city's precise grid-like design and vast ceremonial complexes suggest that Teotihuacan was a powerful center for both religious rituals and trade.
Though the identity of its inhabitants remains largely unknown, Teotihuacan had a significant influence on Mesoamerican cultures, including the Maya and the Aztecs. Today, it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, attracting millions of visitors annually who come to marvel at its architectural wonders and to explore the mysteries of one of ancient Mexico’s greatest civilizations.
