Archaeological Site of Tula Day Trip

At the designated time, we will pick you up from your hotel in Pachuca and travel to Tulla de Allende, the location of the Archaeological Site of Tula.

This city was the capital of the Toltec state, originally named Tollan-Xicocotitlan, later referred to as 'Tula' after Spanish colonization.

During our tour, we will explore key aspects of Toltec culture and learn about events in the chronicles, including the confrontation between Quetzalcoatl and Tezcatlipoca.

As we explore the ruins, notable sites include the Burnt Palace and the Pyramid of Tlahuizcalpantecuhtli, where we will encounter the Atlantes of Tula, four large anthropomorphic figures symbolizing Toltec warriors.

After a comprehensive 7-hour tour of history and archaeology, we will return to Pachuca and drop you off at your hotel.
