Mexico - Teotihuacan

Published:
4.6K Views

Description

The pyramid of the moon in Teotihuacan, Mexico. The name Teotihuacan or "Birthplace of the Gods" was given by the Aztecs and is thus Nahuatl language. Though, the construction of this megapopolis dates back to 100BC-250AD, long before the Aztec era. It is still unclear which civilization has built the site, but ongoing archeological research will give us the answers soon.

Nikon D300, Nikon 17-55mm, B + W UV filter.
