Huge archaeological zone with many ruins. It took about two hours or more to walk through and see everything. Very beautiful and well taken care of. bring a bottle of water and some sunscreen and enjoy a fantastic afternoon!

Extensive museum and archeological site. Very impressive and interactive as you walk amongst the ruins. You feel the influence of history. Definitely worthy of a visit if you are interested in learning something new.

I honestly cannot believe how this archeological site is not more publicized. It is fantastic. Being pretty much the same size as teotihuacan it is not as touristy but offers a lot of fantastic views. It is worth to spend a couple of hours wondering around the area feeling the space. Be sure to stand still and listen and explore all you senses. Fortunately there are not lots of tourists around so you can take your time. Be sure to bring your camera, sunblock and a hat, you can get a pretty bad sunburn if you are not careful. Not a lot of shade to hide from the sun.

Amazing!!! This place is one of Mexico's best kept secrets. It isn't as popular as other sites (far from the main cities), but it's probably one of the most ancient (started around 200 b.c.). Even though, the acropolis is in very good shape. You can walk through the streets and still feel how people lived here. It's huge, consider a full day. To get to the acropolis and The Palace, you have to walk about an hour, but trust me, totally worth the visit!!!

I’d give 6 stars if I could. This place is incredible. Be prepared for long hike, bring water and snacks, and then see sights of a lifetime! The ruins cover a vast area and are spectacular. We were there for about 4 hours and saw maybe 8 other visitors! The visitor center is informative, though not as extensive as I expected, and has some text in English. Visit this site! You won’t regret it. Oh yeah, elevation of 8000’ so plan accordingly!
