About Plazuelas Archaeological Zone
Conceived as an open space in harmony with the surrounding hills, it stands out for its planned integration into the landscape, taking care not to break the order of its surroundings. The remains found in this area indicate that it was one of the most complex settlements in the region. It is made up of seven quarry-based buildings located on three slopes that communicate with each other through long roads and sidewalks; Among its buildings, the following stand out: a ball game plaza, a temazcal and sunken gardens through which the buildings communicate. Very important, when you visit the area remember to observe the symbols carved in rocks that allude to the conception of the universe.
