Mexico is a country of stunning landscapes, beautiful beaches and snow-capped volcanoes. It is known for its rich history, the archaeological monuments of the Aztecs and Maya, the colonial palaces which attract tourists.
Mayan pyramids in Mexico are the real monuments of antiquity. The country has a sufficiently large number of them, but only a few are accessible, since most of the pyramids are covered with thick tropical vegetation, or buried under the soil, so that at first glance they look just like green hills.
Pyramids of Teotihuacan are among the most famous ancient constructions. Two of the largest and best preserved pyramids were dedicated to Maya gods of the moon and the sun. The largest pyramid in the world, the pyramid of Cholula, is bigger than the pyramid of Cheops, but unfortunately the larger part of the pyramid has collapsed. The first-class resorts in Mexico include Cancun, Playa de Carmen, Acapulco, Puerto Vallarta, Cozumel, Mazatlan, and others.
In 1325, the Aztec Indians founded Mexico City. Legend has it that the gods commanded the Aztecs to build the capital there.

The surroundings of Mexico City include dozens of parks and recreation centers, more than 2,000 restaurants, more than 80 museums, theaters, concert halls, 8 universities and several academies.
