Es interesante ver ruinas de culturas antiguas cerca de construcciones contemporáneas. Sin embargo, esto de alguna manera hace que se pierda el encanto. Las ruinas están un poco expuestas y deberían estar mejor protegidas.

Encontrar ruinas prehispánicas en el medio de una ciudad es algo que me llamó mucho la atención. Las ruinas estan bien conservadas, aunque no están bien protegidas y los visitantes pueden caminar casi por cualquier lado lo que pone en jaque su futura conservación. Se siente una magia especial en el lugar, una suerte de viaje en el tiempo.

Lugar obligado para ir, tanto de día como de noche. De día uno puede ir para conocerlo con la visita guiada y de noche ir a cenar para disfrutar de una inmejorable cena con una vista perfectamente iluminada de la pirámide.
