  • The great pyramid called Tlachihualtepetl, which means "hill made by the hand of man", is considered the largest pyramid in the world thanks to its base measuring 400 meters per side. From its summit you have a privileged view of the Puebla valley and the Sanctuary of Nuestra Señora de los Remedios, built in 1594. From above you can also see the Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl volcanoes. Currently there is no access to the tunnels, but there is access to the archaeological zone and the site museum. At the end of the tour of the great pyramid, we visit the center of Cholula to see its zocalo and some spaces with crafts. Finally, we visit the Church of Tonzanzintla, a superb example of indigenous baroque. (pass by)
