The visitor center is a modern facility with great educational assets, including a well done descriptive movie.The entire site is clean, well organized and cared for.

We took a bus ride from Guadalajara. About an hour. Stopped in the little town just before the ruins. The ruins themselves are kinda cool. The say “excavated” but more like “rebuilt”. With modern concrete. Of the 8 hour round trip we only spent 45...More
