A BLEND OF ANCIENT AND MODERN
Edomex is rich in pre-Hispanic history, home to Teotihuacán, one of the most iconic and mysterious archaeological sites in all of Mesoamerica. The towering Pyramid of the Sun and Pyramid of the Moon draw visitors from around the world and offer a glimpse into the grandeur of ancient civilizations.
Beyond Teotihuacán, the state is sprinkled with lesser-known ruins, colonial-era towns, and modern urban centers. Towns like Malinalco, with its mystical energy and hillside Aztec temple, or Aculco, a Pueblo Mágico with cobblestone streets and waterfalls, show the deep connection between history, nature, and daily life.
