Teotihuacan, a UNESCO World Heritage site in Mexico, is an ancient Mesoamerican city renowned for its massive pyramids, including the Pyramid of the Sun and Pyramid of the Moon, built between the 1st and 7th centuries CE. This archaeological marvel features a well-planned urban layout with residential complexes, temples, and the Avenue of the Dead, reflecting the sophisticated culture of its mysterious inhabitants. Abandoned centuries before the Aztec arrival, its origins and decline remain enigmatic, making it a key site for understanding pre-Columbian history.
