Description
The tour begins with a 30-minute visit to the Museum of Modern Art to see one of its galleries. Next, you will visit Chapultepec Castle, spending 45 to 60 minutes there.
The tour continues to the Audiorama site, historically the location of the pre-Hispanic Cincalco Cave, believed to be a gateway between the living world and Mictlán, the underworld in Mexica culture. This area was also thought to be the residence of Tlaloc, the god of water. According to indigenous accounts, the last Toltec ruler, Huémac, died here in 1162, and the site is considered protective and energizing for visitors.
