The Great Pyramid of Cholula, (Nahuatl for "made-by-hand mountain"), is a huge complex located in Cholula, Puebla, Mexico. It is the largest archaeological site of a pyramid (temple) in the New World, as well as the largest pyramid by volume known to exist in the world today. The pyramid stands 55 metres (180 ft) above the surrounding plain, and in its final form it measured 450 by 450 metres (1,480 by 1,480 ft). The pyramid is a temple that traditionally has been viewed as having been dedicated to the god Quetzalcoatl. The architectural style of the building was linked closely to that of Teotihuacan in the Valley of Mexico, although influence from the Gulf Coast also is evident, especially from El Tajìn.
This small museum is fairly basic, but it has a lot of neat displays with artifacts from the area. It was a nice way to end my visit to the pyramid after being in the sun so long.
Neat small museum. It was a nice change from being in the sun. Same ticket that gets you into the pyramid gets you in here. No bathroom on site, but very clean WC around the corner. My kids enjoyed the replica of the tunnel (and much better than waiting in line to see the real one with little kids).
An excellent place, full of culture and perfect to meditate in peace
Incredible place, when will it be open to the public again? Is it closed because of the Covid? Truth?
