At 9 am, we will pick you up from your hotel in Puebla and depart for the Cantona site, located two hours away.

Upon arrival, we will explore the courtyards, activities, houses, workplaces, and the Plaza de la Fertilidad. Cantona is known to have been one of the most important cities after the fall of Teotihuacán, with a population of 80,000.

After visiting the archaeological site, we will proceed to Tepeyahualco at approximately 1 pm, where you will have free time for lunch. Afterward, we will continue to a unique geographical site in Mexico.

We will arrive at the Alchichica Lagoon, a body of alkaline saline water up to 60 meters deep, located in a volcanic crater. Shoreline carbonate sediments resemble a coral reef.
