Juchitepec, Municipal district in State of Mexico, Mexico

The municipality stretches across 141 square kilometers of fertile land at an elevation of 2,531 meters above sea level in central Mexico.

Founded in 1381 by ruler Acamapixtli, Juchitepec became one of the first territories conquered by Spanish forces due to its location on Hernán Cortés' route.

The Church of Santo Domingo stands in the center, displaying Baroque architecture and hosting religious celebrations throughout the calendar year.

The municipality connects to major highways and maintains regular transportation services to neighboring regions, including Mexico City 50 kilometers away.

Local culinary specialties include cheese tamales, tlacoyos with corn and beans, and a traditional beverage called tecui.
