Cuetlajuchitlán, Mesoamerican archaeological site in Huitzuco de los Figueroa, Mexico
The archaeological complex extends across 35 hectares, featuring stone cylinders and limestone walls that formed residential and communal structures during ancient times.
The settlement flourished between 800 BCE and 300 CE, with three major construction phases marking different periods of architectural and social development.
The main ceremonial enclosure measures 28 by 18 meters and contains limestone blocks alongside ritual bath tubs used for traditional ceremonies.
The archaeological site welcomes visitors from Tuesday through Sunday between 10:00 and 17:00, accessible via kilometer 188 of the Cuernavaca-Acapulco highway.
