Day trip exploring Centro Cultural Otomi and hiking around Laguna Iturbide

Details

Lets explore the amazing Centro Cultural Otomi and lets make a beautiful hike around Laguna Iturbide; both in the State of Mexico, at around 1.5 hours from Mexico City.

Centro Ceremonial Otomí or Otomi Ceremonial Center.
This center is the result of efforts to create a recognized space to preserve and promote the Otomi culture. The foundation was formally established in 1980 and construction of the monumental facility began in 1988. The site and organization aims to recreate Otomi ceremonies of centuries past even though the written and archeological evidence as to what they were is scarce. The complex is constructed on a mountain called Cerro La Catedral. The Otomi Ceremonial Center has a small teaching museum with a permanent exhibition of artifacts, history of the Otomi people and past and present crafts. The complex is located on an ecological reserve called the Otomi-Mexico State Park. This park extends over fifty hectares, most of which is covered in pine, oyamel, and holm oak forest. The complex is notable for appearing in the 1989 James Bond film Licence to Kill.
