Beautiful place but get ready for some long walks and if you want to go up on one of the pyramid get ready for one strong workout. If your old please take your time, if you are young take your time it's super Exhausting going up. And if you go down , you may get vertigo. At the time we went only the moon pyramid was open and the sun was closed. But next year the sun pyramid will be open and the moon pyramid will be closed. At the top of the pyramid is a great view of the whole place, take many pictures while up there.

I suggest that you do not hire a guide: they are fine but you can enjoy walking around on your own, tough the map that they hand out is not drawn to scale. There are multiple parking lots, but if you plan to walk the entire grounds you can pick any one. Figure two and a half hours to see everything (especially if you want to check out the vendors), but you can see the two major pyramids in about an hour. Right now, you can only climb the pyramid of the moon, which has pretty steep steps and can be a short aerobic challenge going up but more of a challenge with balance going down. The temple of the sun has steps that are closed since the pandemic, though my guide says that they should be open by January 2026. Make a point of seeing the painting of the jaguar, she's pregnant.

The Pyramid of the Sun is truly a breathtaking historical site and one of Mexico’s most remarkable landmarks. Standing at the top gives you a spectacular panoramic view of Teotihuacan and the surrounding pyramids. The walk to the top can be a bit challenging, especially under the sun, but it’s absolutely worth it. The place is well maintained and rich in ancient history. It’s best to visit early in the morning to avoid the crowds and heat. A must-visit spot for anyone interested in culture, history, and stunning views.
