The ancient Teotihuacan city ruins site is just a half-hour from Mexico City and one of the most famous archaeological sites in Mexico. The origins of the city are unknown; however it is thought that the founders could have been peoples fleeing the Xitle volcano during the first two centuries BC. The town would have flourished between 350 AD and 650 AD. The people that lived here suddenly vanished without a trace. Some of the most important sites to see at Teotihuacan include the main avenue named Cazada de Los Muertos; La Ciudadela, a Citadel with the pyramids, and temples being the main attraction; and The Pyramid of the Moon at the most northern part of the site.
