This is only a place that locals know. Come here for a nice stroll and scenery. There is a free museum on site. I enjoyed my visit here in July 2019. Free entrance.

A very calm place without any tourists. The Great Basement is not very interesting itself, though it seems an oldest pyramid in vicinities. They have lovely park with some benches around, and some roads to hike through the site among nopales as well.
The museum is tiny and not worth visiting.
Founded some archeologist’s tomb, and something looked like a witch house. So this places holding some secrets, indeed.

One of the most ancient pyramid of Mexico, a real gem in south part of the Mexico City. The Cuicuilco is the only known rounded pyramid. It's surrounded by tropical trees and cactus plants. The small but very informative museum is worth to visit. Highly recommended!

This place is not very spectacular. If you’re already in the area and have time then go see it, but if not, don’t go out of your way to visit.

The trail paths are nice and there’s a very small museum there too.

Downtown Mexico City. Nice park with plenty of flora and fauna as well as a 3000 year old pyramid ruin and museum! Well kept and safe.

Interesting circular temple, different from the usual!
The site was free when we went (Saturday) and has a small if slightly aged museum. Signage has some English translation around the site, but Spanish only in the museum.
If you are nearby it’s great to drop in, otherwise I wouldn’t make the trip unless you are a die hard temple collector!

Hidden gem. It’s amazing to stand on the home of a civilization that lived 3000 years ago. Great (yet small) museum tucked away in the back. Do your self a favor and check it out. Worth the trip for a bit of culture
