A thin morning mist lifts off the high plain as the private vehicle eases out of Mexico City and the skyline gives way to wide fields and volcanic ridges. Within an hour the avenue of the dead appears—stone terraces and broad promenades that lead directly to the monumental pyramids. Visitors step from the car into heat and history: the Sun looms, the Moon sits cool and shadowed, and the Feathered Serpent’s carved faces still push a quiet presence across the plaza.
