Teotihuacán: The place where, "Men Became Gods!" Teotihuacán (pronounced "teh-oh-tee-wa-khan") means "place where gods were born," reflecting the Aztec belief that the gods created the universe here at this place. This page will take us to the far Southern End of the excavated part of Teotihuacan. Here we will visit the famous structures known as: The Quetzalcoatl Quadrangle," or "Citadel", or "Ciudadela", the "Pyramid Of The Sun", the "Temple Of Quetzalcoatl" or "Temple Of The Feathered Serpents", and the "Street Of The Dead." Our photos of the "Temple Of Quetzalcoatl" are not as good as we hoped for since the authorities no longer let you go up close to the various figures.

We have links on this page that will connect you with several of the best hotels in Mexico City. We suggest getting a hotel and then letting them arrange either a car or a tour of Mexico City. If you call their Concierge Services ahead of your arrival, all of this can be pre-arranged for you. The very best taxi driver and guide we have found in Mexico City is Javier Hernandez Rivera. His family also attends the Basilica de Guadalupe and he can be contacted through the Holiday Inn Concierge Services at the Holiday Inn Oriente (East) or (airport). Hotel Front Desk Phone: 52-55-56400460. We have made a web page for Javier at: http://www.delange.org/Javier/Javier.htm We do this all the time, when traveling in Mexico. It is safe and it works!!! We have never experienced a problem, doing it this way! The Mexico City International Airport (Spanish: Aeropuerto Internacional de la Ciudad de México or AICM), also called Benito Juárez International Airport (IATA: MEX, ICAO: MMMX) is the commercial airport that serves Mexico City, the capital of Mexico. It is Mexico's and Latin America's busiest. Therefore, we have placed a link to Expedia.com on this page so you can arrange your flights into and out of Mexico City; as well as your hotel, when visiting this area.
