History
Teotihuacan grew from the early centuries BCE into a major urban center by the 1st–7th centuries CE; its planned avenues and massive pyramids influenced later cultures across central Mexico.
Conservation
Heavy visitor traffic accelerates erosion on stone surfaces; stick to designated paths, avoid climbing closed structures, and minimize single-use plastics to reduce impact.
