CENTRO HISTORICO. Located in the Zócalo next to the Catedral Metropolitana, the remains of this ancient temple were discovered in 1978. This amazing archaeological discovery was first built in 1375, and archeologists have unearthed seven additional layers, one on top of the other. An on-site museum exhibits a number of artifacts discovered at the site and educates visitors on Aztec civilization. Be sure to note the temple's sacrificial stone and the gigantic stone carving of Coyilxauhqui, an ancient Aztec goddess.
