The Pyramid of the Sun and the Pyramid of the Moon to visit at least once in a lifetime

This monument is located 40 kilometers northwest of Mexico City. Because it is located on a plateau, even in summer it is only 12 degrees Celsius at night, but if the weather is very good, the UV rays are very strong during the day, and the daytime temperature is about 32 degrees. But a warm reminder to all, please do enough sun protection measures and wear a hat, I did not wear a hat caused after a whole day of sun, the top of the head peeling. The scope of this monument is very large, it takes at least seven hours to tour, and to climb to the top of the pyramid, there is no elevator, no sedan, all have to climb up on your own feet. Please allow enough physical strength, as the stairs are steeper Compared with the Egyptian pyramids I have been to, this is not a desert, and the security here is much better than the Egyptian pyramids, at least there are not so many vendors entangled with tourists. Worth a question, the larger Sun Pyramid is the third largest pyramid in the world The Pyramid of the Moon is located about 46 meters high at the northern end of the Plaza of the Moon. The Pyramid of the Moon faces south and forms a central axis with the Tower of the Sun this time, symbolizing the harmony of heaven and earth As for the height of the Sun Pyramid is 66 meters, the Sun Pyramid was built to worship the sun god, is the greatest building in the Indian world, this time the base of the tower is 225 meters long and 222 meters wide, roughly square.
