Beautiful building designed by Gustav Eiffel

Really cool place and very romantic in the evening. I can really recommend the place and there is a small museum and a nice Cafe/bar.

I love this beautiful palace It is iconic and full of history. His beautiful structure, museums, coffee shop and beautiful garden around just make perfect to seat and relax to enjoy it and transport on time. One of my favorite places to visit every time I am in Orizaba, Veracruz, Mexico.

Several museums and a cafe are located in this art nouveau landmark located in Orizaba. The entrance fee is 50 pesos to enjoy this building to the fullest. Just beautiful and grandiose. You won’t want to miss it while in Orizaba.

Beautiful building, it has a lot of museums inside, official souvenir store and also there is a cafe that smells so good!

Nice place to take a good coffee ☕

Interesting palace, museos are amazing

HORRIBLE !!! LETS FREE THESE ANIMALS ! It's so sad to see wild animal in cage, no space in the middle of the city. Do you want to live like that ? It's not a place for a tiger or a bear... humans are so bad...

It's totally free. Family and friendly. You can see lot's of exotic animals, kind of a zoo. Must wear comfortable clothing and shoes because you have to walk a lot. Perfect for spending your free time. Better watch out and find out what the trip hides! (For example, you can take a look at the locks of love and friendship placed on the bridges).

This site is awesome for tourists. You can walk through the park and will find a multitude of animals like lions, tigers, monkeys, and turtles. Best of all, it’s completely FREE! :)

We really like walking along the river !! It’s very nice 👍

Orizaba is a wonderful place for so many reasons. The river is one of them, just awesome to watch

This is the end of the riverside walk, admiring the murals and the various animal enclosures, around 3 km one way from the teleferico area and double that for returning in the other direction on the opposite bank. Pedestrian bridges as well as vehicular bridges ( with steps to reach them) cross the river at frequent intervals. Not to be missed on a visit to orizaba. Here is where one finds the tiger, hippo. Some animal enclosure enroute are too tiny, wish they had more space.

It's a fun park, a lot of animals

Muy lindo el rio y los animales, no es recomendable benir en tempradas de fin de año. It gets really packed, and the lines are very long. Be sure to bring an umbrella or buy one at the gift shop for $150.00 pesos about $8 dollars. Be sure to bring good walking shoes.

I recommend going up and coming down by cable car. The view from the gondola is fantastic. Looking at the queue, it seems like there's a long wait at the valley station. The price per trip is 35 pesos.

Lines took over an hour. And then half hour to rerun at the top. Ride is super short. Idk if it’s worth the wait to be honest. Only if you have extra time to spend

Killer views of such a incredible area. Very kind & helpful staff working the summit. The hike back down was fun, but quite slippery from the mud from recent rain. Took us about an hour to finish the hike. Worth the money

Great views of the city. Highly recommend if visiting Orizaba

If you like heights (or even if you’re a liiiittle scared) and nice views, this is definitely recommended. You get a nice view of Orizaba as you stop and get off at the top of the mountain to explore more things and get a better view. We loved our experience here!

Amazing place to visit, so many things to do and see! I hope to be able to go again! The zip line was wonderful! There is lines but they move quickly and are shaded. A wonderful place to visit, kid friendly, and lots to explore!

Loved this park! People of all ages can enjoy it! It's nestled between mountains and the nature that surrounds the activities are well preserved and incorporated. Highly recommend you include this place on your visit to Puebla.

A nice location a entertiment park as well for childrens and also for adults. There is no any volcano. There are tirolians nice, karting, a small zoo. You can spent easy anyway 3 hours.

Excelente lugar para disfrutar en familia. A very good place to enjoy with your family. Many attractions for kids and adults.

Great natural place, beautiful gardens, amazing Jurassic area. Clean and very well attended. You can see the Orizaba peak so near.

Great place awesome experience, check a stay the tree house cabins and bubble rooms Very clean and covid protocol complaint. You will enjoy it

Lots of activities and CAMPING! The only thing I didn't like is you can't bring your own food.

Awesome experience , be ready to walk all day long try to dress comfy and bring and extra sweater lol

Very nice museum, entrance is free. If you want to give a tip it is more than welcome. The museum is very big. They have an elevator for disabled people. The location is in the zócalo of Huamantla.

Great museum in an unlikely place. Large collection of puppets from around the world and great guides. Several puppet shows on weekends. Free entry on Sundays.

The puppet show was very entertaining, the actors use all their talent to present a funny play.. the crowd was very happy and the price certainly wasn't expensive, only 40 presos. Widely recommended!

Cool puppet museum. Takes about 30 minutes to 1 hour to visit. No photo inside. Would be better if they have a TV display on a short puppet show.

Was better than I expected! Such a cool place :)

Wonderful collection of the puppet from the past. Great staff. Clean and very well lit. The flow was confusing at times but there are arrows on the floor. I wish I could see them all in action. Highly recommend

The museum was closed (13 March 2021) because of the pandemic. There is a small souvenir shop attached to it that is open where you can buy some puppets and other gifts. Check with the Tourism Department office next door - they can give some recommendations on what's open and places to visit, as well as info on the surrounding areas.

The Basilica of Our Lady of Ocotlan is a must to visit when doing a pilgrimage in Mexico. First time I came here, there was no one else inside, yet I smell a heavy scent of Jasmine. It was my validation that Senora of Ocotlan indulged me with her Divine presence.

Hum. Beautiful architectural building, lots of history.

This church seems hidden but really as grandiose as the others The town seems far but worth visiting. Small town but the church is pretty awesome. The architecture is worth going there. Even the christmas tree has spirit. Made out of love.

PILGRIMAGE OF GUADALUPE Our Visit to the Fountain of Our Lady of Ocotlan which means Pine. Our Lady appeared in a Pine tree. There was an epidemic during that time called Cholera. People who were not sick helped the sick and brought water to them. This was after ten years Our Lady of Guadalupe appeared to San Juan Diego. Our Lady of Ocotlan appeared to Juan Diego Bernardino led him to the fountain that heals the sick. The Franciscan friars followed Juan Diego Bernardino and they believed.

This is a really beautiful church, both inside and out. The feeling inside is akin to the Capilla del Rosario in Puebla, but on a humbler, more intimate scale. The facade seems to have been freshly restored as of March 2023. Try to see the room that's somewhat hidden behind the main altar. It is also lovely but may not be open at the time of your visit.

Beautiful church. The rooms that can be entered through a "secret" door behind the altar have particularly amazing ceilings.

Beautiful ornate church built on the site where the Virgin of Guadalupe appeared to Juan Diego.

There are churches, and then there are sanctuaries that glimmer — this is one of them. Hay iglesias, y luego hay santuarios que resplandecen — este es uno de esos. I always carry my faith with me wherever I travel, and La Capilla del Rosario in Puebla felt like coming home to reverence. This golden chapel is hidden within the Templo de Santo Domingo, yet once you step inside, the light, the gold, the art — it commands your full attention and your deepest prayer. Built between 1650 and 1690, it was the first chapel in Mexico dedicated exclusively to Our Lady of the Rosary.  Because of its stunning gilded interior, the chapel has long been spoken of as the “Casa Dorada” — often called Puebla’s Eighth Wonder of the World.  Every wall, every arch, every dome is adorned with gold leaf reliefs, cherubs, angels, vegetal motifs, aquatic imagery (fish, shells, waves) — a design that seems to whisper of sea and spirit.  Below the paintings depicting the life of Mary, you’ll see Talavera tilework — each tile a bead in a giant rosary, framed by angels’ heads.  At the heart of the chapel stands a statue of the Virgin of the Rosary, sheltered under a golden baldachin (ciprés), with Saint Dominic and Archangel Gabriel above — a vertical direction of prayer, faith, and intercession.  Tradition holds that the Virgin of the Rosary also holds a special place in the hearts of mariners — the protector of those at sea. She is prayed to for guidance and safe passage over water — a fitting devotion in this chapel that evokes ocean motifs and divine presence. If you visit Puebla, don’t rush past this gem. Find a quiet moment inside, let the gold light wash over you, and whisper your prayers. It’s not only a monument of art; it’s a place where faith, history, and divine mystery meet. Hay iglesias, y luego hay santuarios que resplandecen — este es uno de esos. Michelle

Gorgeous 😍 not tickets necessary. Just tip the guide.

It's an amazing church to visit. The Rosario chapel is perhaps one of the best examples of the Mexican baroque period. It's well restored and well kept. Worth your visit when in Puebla

Free admission to enter the church. It looks beautiful from the outside and must be from the inside. It is located quite central and easy to find by walking. Entrance accessible for wheelchairs.

A sumptuous chapel located inside the Church of Santo Domingo. You may pay 20 pesos for entry and its money well spent. There is always a line to see the pace because they are only allowing so many people at a time. Tee church is nice but the chapel is over the top, colonial baroque, with gold everywhere. Most impressive.

Magnificent, a must see, I'm no expert but its interior is so ornate it seems as much rococo as baroque. Either way, wow it is gorgeous.

Absolutely gorgeous! The whole church has an amazing decoration. You gotta be there to fully appreciate every detail

The Zócalo in Puebla is truly the heart of the city and a must-visit destination for anyone exploring this vibrant colonial city. As one of Mexico’s most beautiful and historic plazas, it offers a perfect blend of history, culture, and lively atmosphere. The square is surrounded by stunning colonial architecture, with colorful buildings and ornate facades that reflect Puebla’s rich heritage. The cathedral, with its impressive baroque design, dominates the skyline and adds to the majestic ambiance of the plaza. During the day, the Zócalo buzzes with activity—locals and tourists alike gather to relax, enjoy street performances, or sip coffee at nearby cafes. At night, the area transforms with beautifully lit buildings, creating a romantic and picturesque setting. The surrounding streets are lined with shops, markets, and restaurants offering delicious local cuisine, including Puebla’s famous mole poblano. It’s a great place to soak in the local culture, do some shopping, or simply people-watch. Overall, the Zócalo in Puebla is a vibrant, historic, and charming place that captures the essence of the city. Whether you’re interested in history, architecture, or just soaking up the lively atmosphere, it’s an experience not to be missed.

Puebla es a historic place and have an amazing cultural history. You can find nice place to eat and buy some gifts.

Fantastic decorations for Dia de Los Muertos all over this Zocalo. I had a great time walking around and taking photos of everything. It was super colorful, very beautiful, and so much fun to be had. The architecture is amazing and the sights and people made my heart sing.

3rd largest city in Mexico and absolutely beautiful!!! Add this to your list if you're visiting Mexico City. Make sure to go to the library and thr church in Centro. We took a tour here and it was excellent. Really enjoyed learning about tye history of the city and the architecture.

This place is amazing. I went for Día de los Muertos and it was such an impressive time there. Everything was amazing. Definitely felt safe even with so many crowds. It was awesome seeing the historic architecture and the preservation of the culture. Saw all types of people from Mexico and around the world. Definitely recommend and I will be going back again!

Alot to see and do here ! Food, stores, walking, browsing,tours, museums, people watch, ZumBa, activities.. something always happening. - Can't fly drones here without a permit

Had a wonderful walk around this area and went inside the church. So beautiful.

This is a gorgeous colonial church with many beautiful paintings and statues both inside and outside. It is massive, like the ones you can find in Europe. I was fortunate to witness the conclusion of a mass where an elderly couple was renewing their vows. A restaurant across the street offers lovely views of the church.

Amazing place, beautiful and huge, a lot of restaurants around.

This is one of the most important buildings in the historic center of Puebla declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. It is the first large church that under fine architectural designs

This is an absolutely beautiful cathedral. It's free to visit and is fascinating inside and out. The twin bell towers and fine are fantastic architectural structures. But the design of the inside is fascinating. Near the main entrance it splits into two aisles with the organ in between, a big organ. Beyond that is the high altar with columns are statuary. But be sure to keep walking beyond the high altar. At the far end from the main doors is the resplendent Altar of the Kings.

Wheelchair accessible entrance/exit, but no restrooms here. FREE. Absolutely beautiful cathedral in Puebla. It's one of my favorites! It is one of the first temples of the Americas. The inside is covered in gold, so it is a beautiful site to see, welcome to all people. No flash photos or flash videos allowed. It is open on rainy days and shine! It has beautiful paintings and art on the walls, too. It is located in the town center and surrounded by many shops and restaurants.

The Catedral de Puebla, a stunning example of Spanish colonial architecture, is one of Mexico’s most iconic landmarks. Located in the heart of Puebla’s historic center, this 16th-century cathedral impresses with its grand façade, towering bell towers, and beautifully detailed interior. Visitors are captivated by its ornate altars, intricate stained glass, and the impressive main altar designed by Manuel Tolsá. A visit to the Catedral de Puebla is both a spiritual and architectural experience, offering a glimpse into the city’s rich history and artistry.

If you are in town, it is a must visit to see the great architecture, but not really worth the drive from Mexico City, not much else to do in the city

All the family loved this place! So cool how close you can get to the animals 😂 so many nice places to take pics. And the restrooms are very clean. Lots of different places to eat. Highly recommend if you are visiting puebla with the kids!!

I was impressed! My first Safari in life! It was amazing to see different animals so close 🐘 Such a beautiful family experience! Highly recommend 🌟 The only problem can be lots of visitors, so 🚗 cars drive very slowly and under the sun 🌞 it can be a tricky time with kids in a car! So I would choose time to enter wisely. Maybe not weekends if you have opportunity! Area with Lions is just Breathtaking! 🧡🦁

A super cool drive thru zoo. After you drive thru all the way, there is a walking experience where u get to see even more animals and insects. Such a cool experience for the kids. The animals looked very healthy and well taken care of. Such a delightful place, will come back!

Amazing, better than expected. The animals seem to be better treated that in most zoos and this haves a nice concept that makes it different than a normal zoo. Loved the Cows with gigantic horns

Such a phenomenal experience! I 10/10 recommend if you’re visiting to make this place a stop!

Go on a Monday, bring your own car and take as much time as you need driving through to see the animals. Staff are accommodating and understanding, not strict about poking your head out of sunroofs.

Beautiful place! We came to visit with the family and we had a great time!

I’m studying to be an archaeologist and this place blew me away. Created in stages, like the Maya and other mesoamerican cultures, the pyramid was fantastic and the surrounding ruins were beautiful. There is definitely more that can be revealed. The grassy area that you walk around in was really nice.

After visiting the Cathedral on the hill, we opted to walk around the ruins of the Great Pyramid. What history and building technique. They added layers every 52 years and spans centuries. Not much left but still worth walking around.

It's a very big pyramid mostly covered in dirt. It seems the few things that were excavated were not actually part of the pyramid. The tunnels perhaps would be interesting but were closed. Poor signage resulted in us ascending 300+ steps to get to a church, but have no view of the pyramid (nice city and volcano view, however). Seems the church is the bigger spectacle here.

THE TUNNELS ARE CLOSED. YOU CANNOT GO INSIDE THE PYRAMID/TEMPLE AT ALL, SO YOU WILL SEE ALMOST NOTHING. If you are okay with that, you will pay $95 per person (it is more expensive than listed online) to only see a small amount of the top of it (the rest is underground). If it is a sunny day, you can climb one small part of the temple steps, but that's the coolest thing you'll experience here. If it's raining, that will be closed so there will be almost nothing to see. UNTIL THEY OPEN THE TUNNELS AGAIN, IF THEY EVER DO, I DO NOT RECOMMEND COMING HERE.

Really cool to learn about the history and see the ruins. There are also great places to buy Souvenirs right by the ruins.

Pyramid of Cholula I was incredibly excited to visit the largest pyramid in the world. Knowing that it’s only a 3.5-hour flight from where I live made it even more exciting. However, I was also very disappointed by the way we were treated. I asked at the museum if it was possible to enter the underground passages of the pyramid, and the man who attended me said he didn’t know what I was talking about and told me to just go into the museum. I asked again if there was access to the tunnels, and he raised his voice, saying he didn’t know what I was talking about and that I should go see the patios instead. His attitude was rude and arrogant, so we decided to leave. The site itself is beautiful, full of history, with stories of the gods, the customs of the ancient peoples of Mexico, and also of the new religion imposed by the Spanish. I would definitely visit Cholula again, but I would keep my distance from the government staff.

The Cholula pyramid and archaeological zone was just ok. We went to Monte Alban a week prior in Oaxaca that was stunning so once we got to Cholula I didn’t feel like it was anything special. There was a huge line to get in the ruins and museums which we skipped. The tunnels under the pyramids are closed since COVID. There were also so many people packed in the main square that I really couldn’t take the pictures I wanted. We did climb to the top of the hill and go inside the church that was very pretty and had a great view of the city.

This place in very special for me! Not easy to get there though 🚗 so have been just once! The nature is so precious here, and there’s plenty of place to walk and observe! Perfect for a Day with family ☺️🌟 There’s a restaurant close to Hacienda. Dogs 🐕 just walk around the tables 🤣 We were having lunch outside. I recommend this for its beauty and absolutely stunning Nature! 🌳💦

The estate boasts a pleasant environment with affordable admission fees. Despite weekend crowds, ticket purchasing is quick with minimal queues. The expansive public parking area ensures convenient parking and swift entry. The estate features a large lake, while the estate itself is not vast. Visitors can access the entire estate by climbing stairs without extra charges, although there may be some wait time. The view from the top covers the entire estate. The only drawback is the narrow and potentially time-consuming staircase ascent, requiring caution and patience. Overall, a visit to this estate, like Puebla, is worthwhile for sightseeing – it's a place worth stopping by if you appreciate scenic views and tranquil surroundings.

OMG this place is beautiful. It reminds me of the movie The Notebook. Admission fee was about $50 pesos or $2.50 USD. There are many places you can take Instagramable pictures. There are ducks, a lake, the mission and beautiful fauna. You can also pay extra and ride a boat or fish. They have a small restaurant, a fishing club, a couple of souvenir stores and a few restrooms. You can also have a picnic if you come prepared.

Nice place to take a break, a couple of km off the puebla-mexico city highway. Entry fee of Adults 40 and children 10 pesos. Lovely setting, beautiful paths to walk around, colourful hacienda,shimmering lakes with birds. Clean toilets . Possibility for boating or fishing. Restaurant on site as well as picnic tables.

Nice place to enjoy nature. You can rent a cabin and spend the night safe. Nice camping and the hacienda outside is pretty

Very quaint, great place to relax. Mind the hours, around midday is quite busy and complicated to visit the castle. You can bring your fishing rod, or picnic things. You pay 40 pesos to go in, and extras for fishing or drone pictures.

Beautiful place. Make sure you get a tour so that they can explain the history and importance of the place. You do have to walk quite a while but it is worth it. Also, there is great Mexican food outside of the lake.

It was our special trip to Atlixco for Dia de los Muertos 🧡 Very crowdy though, but that’s because of the festival and a weekend 💀 We found a lovely restaurant with a balcony so that was a perfect choice to hide from heat and crowd and still enjoy the atmosphere of this Place! 🌿☺️ Worth visiting for sure!

The church in el Zócalo of Atlixco was once considered the most beautiful church in Mexico. The town itself is very colorful and most of the tourist attractions are just a few blocks away, we took a short tour in a small 6 seater tour bus at 60 pesos per person and they were very thorough covering the history of the town. We were also told by a local that we couldn't leave without trying their local speciality "cecina" which is a very thinly sliced steak cooked and cut in strips (for tacos). So we headed to the market, 2 blocks away from the Zócalo and had some delicious cecina tacos with nopales, fresh cheese and aguacate on blue, green and purple corn tortillas! We left with very fond memories of Alixco =)

Great time to visit this time a year. The city lights up the plaza and the streets beautifully

Beautiful Place, full of flowers everywhere! Loved to walk around in this wonderful small city!

It is a nice place to go, especially in December as they have 'Villa Iluminada'. You can take some guide tours. It is a bit affected because of the earthquake that happened in September... but it stills nice to visit. You will not regret.

Its an awesome place, I can tell you that it's a good side to enjoy with your family or relationship, you can take a cup of coffee, go to some restaurants and take a beer... In the middle of the garden there is an coffee Italian restaurant and that it's too nice. There's too, the Municipal Palace in front of. I recommend 45% (it depends what kind of place are you looking for).

Gorgeous by day or night. Visit during Dia De Muertos. Amazing decor.

A good selection of stores and food choices. Although for a mall, it seems a little bland. Don't let that discourage you though. As it's still possible to explore here.

Nice place to visit and walk around many things to see. It's close to the mercado

The food is at a good price and as a plus there is a burger king

Plaza Atlixco Puebla Mexico Where you can Get and Watch the latest Hollywood Ca Movies that were Just released by the Studios. Hollywood Ca my home Town.

It is hard to find a spot with shadow, because there is not a single three.

ITS VERY NICE,TO GO TO THE MOVIE TEATHER.....

Good businesses but waiting time in the food court is absurd

Great restaurant but would have liked the option to order a meal rather than pay for the Buffet. A wee bit on the pricey side but Great food none the less. Will come back another time to stay the night as tye rooms look comfortable.

The park around the hotel is nice; petting zoo, zip line, paddle boats and such. The restaurant serves a wide variety of foods and drinks that are very enjoyable. The noise from the fair across the street however is overwhelming, it starts at 8 pm (when the kids should be going down) and continues until after 10. The window coverings do not cover the window well with the exterior lights it make it seem like 8 am at 3am in the morning. Also a fan in the room would go along way, windows are small and don’t provide much air flow. Overall it is a good hotel-if the loud noise (music) was removed it would be much better.

Aince my last visit they added a lot of new stuff. The bird house is very nice and the lemur “King Julian” also very exciting. Unfortunately we ran out of time and could not see the museum of Sor Juana, since the guided tour is only every hour on the hour ! The park is very clean and really nice !

If you need to stay in a place in Amecameca, this is your spot. The location is very convenient and very beautiful. If you stay here, you get a package that includes a good amount of the amenities they offer, but you can purchase morefor a fairly reasonable price. There is no AC but as this is up in the mountains, it is pretty fresh so no need to worry about it being hot overall recommend this hotel. You’ll definitely enjoy it. The food was delicious. The staff in the restaurant and throughout the area are very become accommodating and kind.

I came here mainly to pet the capybaras, which they have two. The all access ticket price is quite steep at 650 pesos at the time of this review. But with that you have access to all of the animal attractions, including a young loin on your lap and the lemurs on your shoulder 😂

Beautiful location. Hotel room was warm when we arrived so we requested a fan which was promptly provided. It hailed in the evening and since I had the window open, some rain came inside but no problem… a guy with a mop and bucket appeared without delay and mopped it up. In the morning the sun rose right in the middle of the Iztaccihautl volcano … incredible since the clouds had blocked the view the night before and Popocatépetl was smoking and they both were white with snow. The grounds are well manicured making all activities pleasant. My favorite was the hacienda and volcano museum . A wonderful switch after a hot week in Mexico City.. the breakfast provided was plenty with fruit, sweet bread, coffee, eggs and small French breads .

To clarify, this is not a hotel. This is a very historic place in Mexico. I just wish more information was available in English. It is interesting to see a 400 year old building mixed with a petting zoo and zip lines but it makes it super fun to visit. The kids had a blast. Bathrooms were clean. People were friendly. The only downside is that they don't let you take pictures with some of the animals. The animal show was entertaining. The medical team was good. We had a small allergic reaction to one of the animal fur and the staff was responsive. Who knew one of us was allergic to rabbit fur. The volcano show was okay. Nothing extraordinary. They used strobe lights heavily and there was no warning for those with sensitivities.

Decent tourist attraction to visit. They charge 65 pesos (~$3.25 USD) per person to enter over 1.2 meters in height ( basically over 8 yrs). Place is runned down but it's a local Hotspot. They have small cafes inside or you can bring your own food. They have lockers and showers to rinse off.

A beautiful place that I've been visited since I was a little boy and sadly looks like the management hasn't updated it at all, the place looks neglected, very sad, I still like it a lot, please take care of it.

These old buildings are not cleaned regularly and don't get any maintenance. Everything inside is extra, like the table, chairs, and changing room. It's not that green, more like alsfalt than grass.

Great place to relax. Unfortunately, they do not have the same water pressure as before the 2017 earthquake. Still a great place to make memories. Aggressive swimwear vendors in front by ticket booth slightly damage the experience. The ice cream lady that is sometimes in front by the exit is the greatest however.

The place is gorgeous the water highly healthy the nature amazing, employees are very kind and nice guys. The facilities are absolutely neglected showers and toilets are completely disastrous.

The park is spacious, the pools are clean and there are a couple for all ages. However, since the last earthquake, the natural spring is just dropplets.

Simple and familiar, not an adventure water park. You can swim in the pool, bathe in sulfuric waters or chill in one of the green areas. Under reservation there are jacuzzis, dry and wet saunas and massages, and they aren't pricey. If you want to eat inside, there are small cafes and dinners, and they aren't expensive, but you can also BYO. Boost is sold inside, you can't bring it from outside.

If you can go as early as possible (opening time is 9), it will be quiet and peaceful. It'll be so early that the markets at the beginning of the route won't be open yet. The hike up is challenging so you do need a basic level of fitness but it is so worth it. The pyramid is small but don't let that put you off. It's a piece of history which is preserved and tells us more about this world and for only 100 pesos entry, it's well looked after. The most beautiful part of this is the view that you are rewarded after your hike. Highlight of my time here.

I had been eagerly anticipating the opportunity to write this review once I had the chance. Perhaps I wasn’t paying close enough attention, but it seemed like nowhere was it mentioned that the path to this archaeological site takes approximately two hours if you’re not particularly fit. It’s genuine rough terrain—true hiking. According to my data, to reach the summit where the pyramid is located, you need to ascend about 400 meters vertically, which is roughly equivalent to climbing a 130-story building on foot. So, please keep this in mind, and most importantly, it seems that, judging by the number of people there—including small children being carried and elderly individuals—very few are actually aware of what lies ahead. Well, now you know. As for the archaeological site itself, to be honest, it’s probably not worth the climb, at least not more than once. There are a lot of people, and the charm of a secluded mountaintop spot dissipates. However, the pyramid stands right on the edge of a cliff, and behind it is a steep drop, reminiscent of the scene in the movie “From Dusk Till Dawn,” where the bar is revealed to be an ancient temple, and vampires would toss bodies and cars down below. This could have served as a prototype for that scene in the film. You can climb onto the pyramid, by the way, but the archaeological zone itself isn’t all that impressive. I must say, the ascent was quite a surprise, and don’t forget that you also have to descend, which isn’t exactly easy either. Oh, and at the end, they’ll charge you 100 pesos for visiting the area, of course. Overall, it’s pretty cool; everyone takes photos and is happy they made it. Those still climbing can be encouraged as you descend. So, it’s alright.

Really nice place! 90% of the hike has stairs, so as long as you have average condition, you should be able to safely hike this hill. I get why, but asking you to pay $100 mxn to see something you are already seeing (the pyramid-like construction) felt like it was not worth it (not complaining about the price, it is fair)

A beautiful place to visit the egg is very pleasant and the view from the top is stunning. I would recommend anyone to go there, the hike is a bit tough but it’s worth it. Take good shoes and water

Beautiful hiking! The path to the pyramid is very demanding but the view from there is amazing. The site is not well maintained, there is no bathroom and a lot of trash. To access the site you need to pay MXN 100 and it only accept cash.

The hike is strenuous, prepare in advance. Takes 3-4 hours to complete the whole trek. You will gain almost 2000 feet (600 meters) while going up. The trek is 1.4 miles (2 kms) one way. Keep 100 pesos per person, they take the entrance ticket just before the pyramid. Overall its a very nice hike with beautiful view at the top.

Entry to the pyramid (and the beautiful view) closes at 3pm/15:00, but there are no signs to indicate that until you’ve gone all the way up. Bummer! It’s a beautiful hike otherwise, and you’ll get a good workout.

Lovely little site in the middle of Cuernavaca. No longer can enter the pyramid after 2017 earthquake damaged the structure. Still loads of very useful information around the site. Very good price to see something created so long ago, also has toilets on site and the staff were very welcoming. Signs need slightly updating as the sun has worn them down slightly.

A wonderful place inside Cuernavaca , right next to the new concert hall truly captivating, a similar two temple at the top pyramid structure dedicated to war and water , Cuernavaca had a wonderful prehispanic past and several houses still have hidden treasures and secrets hidden throughout the city Come visit

The place although very small compared to other ancient archeological sites is quite interesting and well kept. The information on the signs is enriching

Not the most elaborate of archaeological sites. We weren't able to walk to the top of the largest platform. The site is still interesting enough to capture your imagination

This place is very beautiful to witness the prehispanic architecture design and informational guide explaining what they were used for. It provides 3 languages: Spanish, English, and Nahuatl writings to captivate the audiences attention. It's not a big park but not small, just enough to tour around the area. When I went there, the main temple, in the center and supposed to represent the templo Mayor (Main temple) in Tenochtitlan (Mexico city now), was off limits to go up. Probably due to the weather and human that greatly affected the pyramid, but still can go on other smaller ones.

Nice area to stroll around when the weather is nice. Due to an earthquake, you're not allowed to climb or entire the main pyramid.

A wonderful experience. The receptionist was very helpful and the history behind the pyramids is so intriguing

The building itself is impressive even from a distance. It’s clear that Hernán Cortés wasn’t exactly a likable man—he had to fortify himself well. At the entrance, you'll find statues, but don’t expect to see Cortés among them. If you’ve spent even a little time in Mexico, you’ll know he’s not exactly a national hero here. Now, about the museum. The most important thing to note—there’s absolutely nothing from Cortés inside. Not a single artifact, not even a rusty colonial-era nail. Instead, the exhibition features a lot of small sculptures found in Morelos, along with an oddly large collection of so-called contemporary art. Judging by the exhibit titles, the idea was to merge indigenous art with modern vision—but it didn’t really work. The indigenous figurines and even a stone safe for valuables are interesting, but the contemporary pieces? Not at all. Some rooms still have murals from the early 20th century. Technically modern, but nearly a hundred years old by now. I noticed that some visitors found them engaging, but personally, I didn’t see much artistic value in them. The museum also has murals by Diego Rivera, but during my visit, they were under restoration and inaccessible. The best part of the visit? The balcony, which offers a great view of downtown Cuernavaca. Entrance costs 100 pesos, which feels a bit pricey for just five rooms and a couple of balconies. At least you can pay by card—that’s a plus.

Everything is in Spanish. Normally I leave reviews in English but I want to make this clear to English speakers. It's worth a 5 star visit FOR THE MURAL ALONE. But just be aware that to fully enjoy the museum you'll need to read Spanish at a high level or use an optical translator. On the other hand, the crafts and artifacts are interesting to look at without Spanish. You can do the museum in about 30 minutes if you're not reading.

Though well laid out,the museum was sparse of displays. Still enjoyed the walk through

Really interesting experience! A lot of interesting signs but make sure you have a translate app as all in Spanish. Very reasonable price and nice staff!

A nice museum that has the potential to grow. Beautiful mural paintings and a great overview of the different cultures. Entrance fee is $90 (Nov/2023)

Well worth visiting to see the Diego Rivera murals. Other interesting exhibits too

Oh Folks, go see and support this reopened museum. Very good and well assembled. Sure you will enjoy it. MickT 😎

Very eclectic and beautiful gardens and swimming pool to enjoy. While you can't swim, you can imagine yourself living here and enjoying the wonderful weather. The hodgepodge of collected items from around the world will keep you interested for at least a little bit.

When we walked in, a woman leaving said “it’ll blow your mind” and she was correct. Stunning home!

An amazing collection of art and a beautiful home. We had a private tour guided by Sergio, providing details that made it even better.

Fantastic art museum in a beautiful restored colonial mansion. A must see in Cuernavaca. Lots of colonial religious art beautifully displayed with antique Asian art and works by more modern artists like Rivera, Tamayo, and Frida Kahlo. Beautiful gardens too.

Amazing collection from all over the world. I wish it was better organized but wow they have some incredible pieces.

There are no words to describe how much I enjoyed this unique place. It is a true feast for the eyes 😍

A really unique, special place. Considering Bob was openly gay, it's full of images of naked women and Jesus/Mary. Fun fact: the water doesn't run when you turn on the taps and the towels in his bathrooms only smell a tad musty.

I had done Sky Diving on 6th August, 2025. I had already bought premium package for a very great amount. The only dicy thing was that there was a girl who was clicking pictures at landing. It was very strange that when we came that girl neither bothered to show the pictures nor sold it to us. She had already left the venue in few moments At the starting the people who did it had option to see it and then buy it. When I tried connecting on the number mentioned they were quite reluctant to show the pics and instead expecting to buy it . Isn't there responsibility to make sure if you had clicked pics to ask what's need to be done . This behaviour happened just with me is it because I am not of this country or you do it with everyone that's the question. Premium package does not include landing pics that's fine but what options are given to everyone should be given to me

I enjoy flying with these folks. Very clean and organized. Good food available on site in their cafe. Always puntual with their service times for sky diving. My last few jumps were with Kike and I highly recommend asking for him. Of all the different places I’ve chosen to sky dive this is the best!!!

This place is good for the experience but in our case were wait for hours for plane and after jump. Once time in the earth, we were wait for more hours by the videos and photos for that pass to the cel and the usb. The experience is incredible but the attention is a little bad.

I would improve a little bit their logistics but the fact that I am back after skydiving with them makes all the things before that to be forgotten. The experience is incredible, I was a little afraid to do the jump but my instructor calm me and handled all the jump smoothly. Definitely an experience you should have at least once in your lifetime. Get there with at least half an hour before your appointment and be metalized to be at least 3 hrs more after you get scheduled for the jump. There are only beers, soft drinks, food and snacks for sale, so if you are looking for other drinks just be prepared yourself.

Skydive Mexico is one of the best and literally the cheapest sky dive experience in the world. Its located at Emiliano Zapata 19, 62680 San José Vista Hermosa, Mor., Mexico and is 2 hours drive from Mexico city on the Acapulco road. The drive is smooth and depending upon the crowd you can complete everything in 3 hours. The divers are extremely experienced, very well behaved and fun to be with in the overall experience. Don't miss this if you are in Mexico.The place also offers souvenirs and light munches. Overall a memorable place.

This a really professional service place, they are experienced and really know their business. You can feel secure and confident, the service they provide is attentive despite they could be really busy. The experience is fantastic and I would do it again.

Really good experience, you have to do it once in a lifetime at least. Great time with friends, and you must pay for the video it worth it.

Wow, what a breathtakingly beautiful site. I could have spent all day wandering around the mountain top or just looking out at the landscape. The gorgeous town of Malinalco nestled below. The jacarandas in full bloom added a splash of purple that made my visit magical. It is definitely worth a day trip down from México City to visit. If I had more time I would look into staying in Malinalco for a few days. Stunning!

Long hike up and the temple was closed but the views were excellent and the interpretation was very good.

Easy 20 minutes walk up to the reasonably well preserved archeological site at a moderate steady pace. Well laid out stone steps throughout. Great views of the town below and the mountains around from the top. Information placards laid out throughout the route and at the top describe the history of the place very well. Entry costs 65 peso per adult, children go free and students get a discount. Open from 9 am.

Out of the ordinary, nice temple carved in the stone, getting up there is really not that hard unless you are really out of shape. Awesome place for taking pictures and story of this place is really great

It's one of so many magic towns (pueblo magic) in the beautiful and historical México which is rich in culture. If you want to know some history from the mexicas, you will get to know it and see it in this town. It's a little far from the city but you're going to love it.

One of the key temples of Mexico / great view and good work out climbing up the mountain to the eagle warrior and jaguar warrior temple. great experience to get to know about Aztec/Mexica history and culture

Amazing place! The monolithic temple is awesome! And you have a lot of options for cultural and adventure tours on the zone!

Very nice place to visit if you are not far from there. It’s botanist gardens with different style: Roman, Japanese. They host concert and wedding. They restaurant is good and staffs are very friendly.

Loooooved this place. I really like how they organised everything and how well maintained it is. We went on a weekday so the place was ours. It was a hot day but you could always find a shade to rest. It reminded me of Kew gardens because of the sectioning of the gardens instead of the plant habitats. I come from northwest Mexico so I had no idea this existed. Very proud we have something like this in Morelos.

A very beautiful and well preserved collection of botanical gardens with the most typical styles from around the world. The place is quite big and it takes from 2 to 4 hours to walk across all the gardens and visit the open spaces that the place offer. The entrance cost appear to be a little expensive but it's really worth it, it's almost like entering to an amusement park. You can pay an additional amount (50 pesos at this time) to use the internal transport which I recommend if the weather is hot or if you are visiting the place with kids or elder people. Food from the restaurants inside the park is really expensive and it's not that good, a lot of people were complaining about the taste of the dishes, beverages are not included in the buffet. For food I suggest to go to a nearby town, Tequesquitengo which is 10 minutes by car from the park where you can find much better food with much lower prices.

I'd never thought that visiting a garden would be so much fun. I had zero expectations, but walking or experiencing all the gardens was a different experience. Bring water bottles with you

Wonderful place to spend the day walking in magnificent gardens! Though a little bit expensive to get there, it was worth the trip! I will love to go back in another season of the year to enjoy the blooming of the different gardens! I even enjoy an unexpected dance show from Veracruz state. Very, very good! Bring your children! They will love discovering the different environments!

It's a stunning place. Great option to have an awesome day with friends, family, partner o even your dog. They open the place for dogs time to time. I went during Summer, it's really beautiful but it changes according to the season. They recommend you visit on November when everything is yellow and December when everything turns into red. November is full of marigolds and other day of the dead typical flowers and December is painted on res because of the poinsettias. Of course, along Spring it is a rainbow. Definitely a wondrous place, must to visit several times. Try to stay there enough time. It's really hot so you will want to have some break throughout your visit. If you don't have any healthy issue, try to visit by walking, it's worthy!

The place is nice, it is very well taken care of and you can see several plants. If you're into such well "groomed" gardens, this is the place for you. The WOW effect were the orchids and the cactuses. Easy to get to. You have to wear masks also outdoors. The buffet restaurant is nice, food is good. Drinks are not included.

Beautiful experience!! We highly recommend. It makes a good day trip from Puebla. The caves are huge! I have never seen a cave system this large. There were a lot of people but it didn't hurt our trip. We went on a Sunday afternoon.

A couple of friends, Héctor & Sara took me here during my trip to Mexico, and I can’t even begin to explain how awe-inspiring this experience was. It’s a two-hour adventure, and you can start off by either zip-lining across the cave entrance or walking across—an incredible way to kick things off! I was absolutely blown away by the sheer size of the caves. Pictures will never do them justice—you truly have to be there in person to appreciate their vastness. It’s 100% worth the drive. The name Cacahuamilpa comes from the Náhuatl language, spoken by one of Mexico’s Indigenous cultures, and it means “fertile peanut planting field.” The area was named for its rich soil, which was ideal for growing peanuts. In pre-Hispanic times, many Indigenous tribes avoided entering the cave system, believing that the rock formations inside were evil spirits. Entering the caves was thought to bring bad luck. The caves’ modern history began in 1834 when a wealthy man from a nearby town hid inside them during a conflict. After returning home, he shared stories of the incredible caves, sparking interest in them. They officially opened to tourists in 1920, and in 1936, the Mexican government declared them a National Park. If you ever have the chance to visit, don’t hesitate—this is an unforgettable experience.

Best experience ever!! Make sure you bring the right shoes is slippery and a flashlight

This is one of the longest limestone cavern I have ever seen. It has been developed very nicely. The lights are helpful for pics and also to render the formations. They have a short zip line at the entrance which is at extra cost. There is also a small food area before entering. Sell coconut for 70 Pesos which is about twice the price compared to regular prices. All in all a great experience

A delightful creation of nature, striking in its scale and beauty. A magical place where you feel like you’ve accidentally visited the underground giant kings. With all this, this place is perfectly equipped and even with children, traveling through it is safe and easy. Unfortunately, I simply forgot to buy a permit for “professional filming,” so don’t blame me for the photo...

Best national park tour available! The tour guides are not only informative and knowledgeable but sprinkle in family friendly humor throughout to keep it interesting. Be prepared though the trek is long but the guides constantly check in with the group to assess the overall stamina and give plenty of heads up as to how much longer the tour lasts. The views of the cavern are breathtaking as the guides really know how to keep you engaged throughout the tour.

Food: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Parking: 5/5 Family friendly: 5/5 Stroller friendly: 3/5 I gotta say, i wasn't to sure what to expect from this place since it's out in the middle of nowhere-svillle, but I'm glad I was able to experience this amazing ecological park and cave. We did this on our way Taxco, Guerrero; México. The opens around 10-1030ish and there is a fee to park ($50 MXN, $1 USD). Just be prepared to get swarmed by vendors selling trinkets and what-not. It is the culture here, however I got used to it. To get into the caves there are guided cave tours ($8 USD, $150 MXN per person). Our guide was excellent, she explained the history of explorers and how the cave came to be, the inhabitants of the cave (bats), and some science of the minerals of stalactites and stalagmites. She spoke enough English to explain some things as well. There are also other activities like Ziplining where, instead of walking across the bridge to the cave, one can Zipline across which i think was $60 MXN. This trail is about a 4 KM (2 mile-ish) walk in dimly lit terrain in a humid enclosed cave, so if you or someone in your party is not into that you're able to turn around. Also, there are about 100 steps towards the turn around. BE PREPARED WITH WATER! Once done with the caves, thee are so many vendors selling coco frío, micheladas, and other excellent foods. We ended up at Fonda Mary that made excellent, fresh quesadillas, tacos dorados, and so many other delectable foods. I highly recommend this experience if you're on the fence about doing it.

Build by Jose de la Borda a prosperous miner of Taxco who became bankrupt owing to the high cost of this but later stuck silver and became even more wealthy. It is one of the best new Spanish constructions. Santa Prisca has nine floor-to-ceiling altarpieces, worked in wood and covered with gold leaf. The style of the altarpieces forms a unit with the architectural ensemble, that is, it is a sample of mid-18th century New Spanish Baroque

Stunning architecture and home to the world’s largest silver Virgin of Guadalupe Santa Prisca de Taxco is the crown jewel of Taxco. The Baroque architecture is breathtaking, with its detailed stonework and iconic twin towers making it a standout right in the center of the town. The interior is equally impressive, filled with ornate altars, intricate artwork, and a peaceful, reverent atmosphere. One of the most unique features is the solid silver statue of the Virgin of Guadalupe, said to be the largest in the world. Standing six feet tall and weighing around 380 pounds, this statue is a true reflection of Taxco’s silver heritage and a highlight of any visit. Founded in 1751, Santa Prisca holds historical and cultural significance, contributing to Taxco’s reputation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. An awesome experience, combining history, architecture, craftsmanship, and spiritual importance in one unforgettable visit.

This place is amazing. The cathedral is beautiful. They have a great light show during the weekend that is worth to see.

A stunning church, somehow only built in a half a dozen years in the 1750s. There are local official tourist guides that will be glad to give you a detailed history and tour of the chapel, remember to prepare a tip for them.

What a beautiful piece of work. I have never seen any of the historic churches in Europe but I imagine they would look something like this. Took a trip up the bell tour. Got vertigo. Worth stopping into if you are there.

What a beautifully designed church. It is the heart of the town. Beautiful Inside and out. Once inside everywhere you lay eyes on you see intricate designs. The silver Virgen de Guadalupe is life size and is a testament of Taxco being the capital of silver of Mexico. I know you can ask about climbing the towers to get a view of the city, we visited while they were doing baptisms and didn’t know who to ask but if you have the chance definitely do it!

What a beautiful place! One of the most beautiful churches in México. It's definitely worth the trip there. So many nice views and so much history.

We visited the Santa Prisca Church. It is beautiful inside and out. Take the time to go up the Tower to see a nice view of the whole town. The only bad thing is all these people trying to sell you something every step you take. They don't let you take all this beauty in in peace.

Charming town square full of life and local character The Zócalo of Taxco is everything you’d hope for in a small Mexican mountain town. lively, picturesque, and full of local charm. Surrounded by whitewashed colonial buildings, narrow streets, and the stunning Santa Prisca Church, it’s the perfect place to sit, relax, and soak up the atmosphere. Street vendors, small cafés, and silver shops line the area, and the vibe is welcoming and peaceful. Whether you're enjoying a coffee, people-watching, or starting your exploration of the town, the Zócalo feels like the natural heart of Taxco. It’s simple but special experience for its authentic, small-town Mexico feel.

Espectacular view of the city. Taxco is a hidden gem of mexico. A white city with colonial red roofs. Little stone pave street well kept. I bit crowded at times by local vendors. A mix between an Cinque Terre and Tangier

It is very small, do not come by car, the streets are very small so it is better to walk everything is incredible

Great experience spending time in Mexico's main plaza and in the colonial town of Taxco, Guerrero.... Enjoy it my dear friends... ❤️

Downtown is the perfect place to hang around with friends, family or just by yourself. You will find delicious food, fantastic spots for pictures and local people are really kind to you. For some this is not that important but throughout our experience we found out that this is a pet friendly town.

Wonderful place to visit!! A must go town!! Many restaurants bars and cafes to choose from, during the day you can visit the silver and jewelry shops and be amazed with the designs and the prices!! The trip is just two and a half hours from Mexico City.
