Guadalupe Shrine and Teotihuacan Pyramids

We’ll begin our tour in the morning, first visiting the Plaza de las Tres Culturas (three cultures plaza) and the Basilica of our Lady of Guadalupe, also called "The Empress of America."

The tradition of La Villa de Guadalupe, as we know it today, involved a miracle and an Indian saint. This miracle was manifested when the apocalyptic image of the Virgin became emblazoned in a rough piece of cloth noticed by 16th century Indians living on their own end of the world. The image fascinated Creoles who multiplied it until it became a national phenomena in the 19th century. It was the Indian Diego whose vision of the Virgin Mary in 1531 began a saga of stories that aided in the conversion of millions of Indians to Catholicism and became a symbol for Mexican Christians around the world. Today la Villa de Guadalupe is an interesting place visited by people of all religions and nationalities.

Next, we’ll visit the famous archaeological site of Teotihuacan where we’ll see the monumental Pyramids of the Sun and Moon, the Temple of Quetzalpapalotl and the Avenue of the Dead. Few cities in the world have even been considered worthy of being inhabited by Gods who are typically accustomed to occupying loftier realms than those populated by mere mortals. Teotihuacan is just such a city, with over a thousand years of civilization, you can still feel why today as you stroll along its wide avenues, projecting out towards the cardinal points of the universe. Many years, events and people passed before this amazing place was elevated to the ranks of a mythical city. The most obvious expression of the past generations and peoples who inhabited this site, only 50 kilometers northeast of Mexico City, are the archaeological vestiges of the city itself and the many remnants of fine pottery from Teotihuacan which are found today in exhibitions around the world.
