Just a short trip from Cuernavaca, this incredible site offers a unique glimpse into Mexico’s ancient past with its impressive monumental art and stunning views. Be sure to visit the on-site museum to see the recently unveiled monument, “La Puerta al Inframundo” (The Gate to the Underworld), a captivating piece that deepens our understanding of Olmec cosmology.
