  • The journey begins with an introduction to the ancient cultures that inhabited these lands before the arrival of Europeans, offering an in-depth look at their traditions, architecture, and worldview. Visitors will then stop in front of the Church of Santiago, a powerful symbol of cultural and historical fusion. Built in 1522 on the ruins of an ancient Aztec temple, this church represents the beginning of the colonial period. Here, travelers will learn the dramatic history of the conquest, including the Aztec Empire's last stand against the forces of Hernán Cortés. Finally, the tour connects with the emergence of independent, mestizo Mexico, explaining how national identity was forged from this complex fusion of cultures. This experience not only showcases historical monuments, but also provides an understanding of how the past has shaped modern Mexico. (pass by)
