    There is so little known about the Teotihuacano people since they have no, as yet discovered, written language. However, the fine art displayed in this museum well give you an idea of the culture and economy of the people. The signs are in English and Spanish.

    We loved the museum it was so cool to read and see so many artifacts.the fact that they have the skeletons on display was amazing... also if you really want to get into the history and really want to understand what you're walking on and touching i recommend watching the documentary " the blood pyramids ".

    Very cool museum that was one of my favorites in New Mexico. Tons to look at and was a fan of the skeletons and stuff in the museum. The museum is small but it can take a while if you read everything. Definitely check it out since you paid for it to get in

    This often overlooked museum is a must see. The 3D model by itself is worth the price of admission, which is included with the entrance to the site. All signage is bi-lingual.

    Small museum that houses some of the artifacts excavated at Teotihuacan and has an associated botanic garden and some outdoor sculptures.

    The real history of the Teotihuacan people is relatively unknown. It's obvious they were culturally advanced, community minded, and spiritual in their beliefs. The pyramids of the Sun,Moon, and Featherd Serpent are some of the largest structures in the western hemisphere. The paintings, sculptures, structures, and weapons allow you a slight glimpse of what it was like 2500 years ago. Prepare for hot weather and lots of time to experience the pyramids.

    I can't overemphasize how vulnerable your skin is here. Put sunscreen on all over your chest and neck even if you're wearing a sweater when you arrive because it's very easy to forget once you start rushing around and the heat gets to you and you get distracted by food, thirst and souvenirs

  • 5/5 Sabino Alejandro Hernandez A. 5 years ago on Google • 63 reviews
    In my opinion the best part of the site. A really good explanation of the culture and the history of the prehispanic civilization.

    A historical place for all Latin America a must come to see and learn what has been hidden under ground for centuries.

    Really enjoyed learning about the temple of the serpent and the rituals around death and the belief in the afterlife.

    Entry is free for Mexican citizens and residents. There are also a small entrance fee. I went on Sunday and it was crowded. We waited more than 1 hour for our turn to come, as we went up to the Great Pyramid in a queue. I would recommend anyone to go during the week. Don't forget to buy souvenirs 🥳

    The museum allows to see in more detail some of the elements you may have seen and your guide may have explained during the visit. In addition it has a VR experience to see the site from a different perspective both above and below... Great experience!

    Amazing energy is feeling throughout the area

  • 5/5 Zahra Mandana F. 1 year ago on Google
    The site this museum is built on is huge, but not many artifacts left to see. The place to see the artifacts and skeletons is the museum.

    If you go to Teotihuacán, take the time to see the museum, is really nice to understand and discover more information around the civilizations that lived there.
