Cañada de la Virgen Archaeological Site Tour

We will meet at Zacateros Street at the agreed time and head west to the Cañada de la Virgen Archaeological Zone. After a 45-minute drive, we will arrive at this important Toltec-Chichimec fortress.

This archaeological site, located on a plateau surrounded by canyons, showcases its strategic importance. We will explore the three complexes that make it up: the House of the Thirteen Heavens, the House of the Longest Night, and the House of the Wind.

Accompanied by an expert guide in archaeology, we will visit the astronomical observatory, the clock, the necropolis, and the esplanades used by the Toltecs.

After touring the site, we will enjoy a typical ranchera lunch before returning to San Miguel de Allende to conclude our excursion.
