Everyone cleans their door steps early in the morning. The city cleaners start earlier than that. The poster/graffiti cleaners do their part as well.Honestly the city is much more cleaner than Paris or London. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite24" alt=":unsure:" title="Unsure    :unsure:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":unsure:" />We visited the important sites. There are book vendors, (both new and old) and there are many people buying books. Mostly Spanish. There are areas kilometers long lke Panchikawatta, anything and everything is there. They repair anything from a home blender to a Washing machine on-site. Heaps of spare parts.Will post some more photos tomorrow. Have to star early tomorrow to Teotihuacán and a couple of other places.<a href="https://imgbox.com/COrmuxxs" target="_blank"><img src="https://thumbs2.imgbox.com/57/83/COrmuxxs_t.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a><a href="https://imgbox.com/gd0u1WcL" target="_blank"><img src="https://thumbs2.imgbox.com/ea/7f/gd0u1WcL_t.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a>-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Started driving to Teotihuacán sharp 7 AM from the hotel Arrived at the pyramids at 8.10 AM. It's a drive outwards from the city and no congestion. Also better to finish the visit during the early morning Sun.Entrance Fee is 95.00 Peso per person (less than 6 USD) and the car an extra 50.00Hardly anyone was there at that time. The tourist buses start later in the day.

These are not military strutures.<a href="https://imgbox.com/8BH74OD1" target="_blank"><img src="https://thumbs2.imgbox.com/16/97/8BH74OD1_t.jpeg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a><a href="https://imgbox.com/CZxr6k83" target="_blank"><img src="https://thumbs2.imgbox.com/1c/cb/CZxr6k83_t.jpeg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a><a href="https://imgbox.com/0N1MHTAF" target="_blank"><img src="https://thumbs2.imgbox.com/bb/44/0N1MHTAF_t.jpeg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a><a href="https://imgbox.com/Zj4ko52V" target="_blank"><img src="https://thumbs2.imgbox.com/64/78/Zj4ko52V_t.jpeg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a>The above are the plaques posted at the site providing some information.------ Post added on [DATETIME="UT"]1710288355[/DATETIME]<hr />Yes... If you think Vietnam is the place for street food, forget Vietnam - this place everywhere street food. The Mexicans seem to be eating all the time too. Street foods are quite cheap compared to Restaurant food.We have finished the Mexico city and stayted for four days. Will leave tomorrow and fly to Tuxtla early in the morning. About one and a half our flight.Within a very short distance from our hotel there's a UNESCO World Heritage site and below is what's now left of this majestic structure. The Spaniards demolished it and built churches just nearby.  <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/sad.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":(" title="Sad    :(" data-shortname=":(" /> It's the Templo Mayor (Main Temple) in Tenochtitlan, capital of the mighty Aztec empire, which was located in the center of the city. It was very important to the Aztecs. Standing about ninety feet high, the majestic structure consisted of two stepped pyramids rising side by side on a huge platform.  This is what's left of it now.<a href="https://imgbox.com/ykQlp4qw" target="_blank"><img src="https://thumbs2.imgbox.com/ad/22/ykQlp4qw_t.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a>------ Post added on [DATETIME="UT"]1710378543[/DATETIME]</blockquote>
