Exploring Teotenango archeological site and the town of Tenancingo

Let´s explore the off the beaten track archeological site of Teotenango and nearby town of Tenancingo, both in the State of Mexico, near the city of Toluca, at around 2 hours from Mexico City !!!

Teotenango was an important pre-Hispanic fortified city (650 to 1550 AD), located in the southern part of the Valley of Toluca, at 2700 meters. It was initially founded during the last stages of the Teotihuacan civilization by a group generally referred to as the “Teotenancas.” Later, the Matlatzincas conquered the city and expanded it. The city existed for about 1,000 years, being abandoned only after the Spanish Conquest of the Aztec Empire. At its height, the city was densely populated with a main road about 1400 meters long, pyramidal platforms, palaces, a ballgame court, formidable defenses, drainage and water delivery systems. All around the site there are naturally protruding rocks containing petroglyphs with various signs and symbols. However, only a fraction of the site, mostly the northeast section which contained the ceremonial center, has been excavated and preserved. Afterwards we will visit the colorful town of Tenancingo.
