Zona Arqueologica de Cempoala
We will travel to Cempoala, one of the most important archaeological sites in the state of Veracruz. The buildings of that site have an architectural beauty that is worth admiring, such as the Temple of the Sun or Great Pyramid, which resembles the temple of the sun in Tenochtitlán; and Las Caritas, whose name comes from the hundreds of stucco skulls that adorned a small structure at the base of the temple's stairs.
