Templo Mayor Museum

The Great Temple is located next to the central square and is a super convenient attraction. The original temple has been destroyed by Spanish colonists. The existing only towers and stone steps are still amazing.

This semi-explored ruin has clear English and Spanish instructions, this is an important historical monument, very worth seeing. It is worth noting that there are many stairs to go up and down here, which is more difficult for people with limited mobility.

The devastated Teokari Temple of Transportation: 📍 is located in the northeast corner of Constitution Square. Take the subway to Zocalo, which is the Constitution Square Station.

I love this place, every time my foreign friends come to visit Mexico City we make sure to visit Templo Mayor to learn more about Mexican history, besides that, is centrally located and next to other attractions which can be fun for a whole day visiting Mexico City downtown.

The Grand Temple is one of my favorite attractions. Although the Grand Temple and the city of Teochititland have sunk to the ground because of the disappearance of Lake Tekoko, the site gives us a glimpse of the past. The Museum of the Great Temple is doing very well, and its collection of cultural relics is as rich as the National Anthropological Museum. It is suggested that we reserve a day for this scenic spot.

The temple was the main shrine of the Aztec Empire. In 1978, when electric workers were working on the project, they found a boulder under the ground with a carving of a shrine. The authorities later discovered more cultural relics, so they began excavations and even demolished some of the buildings on the ground. However, most of the shrines have been destroyed, leaving only the bottom and some remnants. Although the authorities have built transparent corridors to allow visitors to intersperse the site.
