Teotihuacán Bike Tours

Back in 8,000 BCE, Mexico became one of the six ‘Cradles of Civilization’, home to the ancient civilizations of the Teotihuacan, Olmec, Maya, Zapotec, and Purepecha people. This Mesoamerican empire was dominated by the Aztecs until the arrival of the Spanish Empire and the establishment of the New Spain colony, which would last until the Mexican War of Independence in the early nineteenth century. In the 21st century, Mexico is a federal republic of 31 states, headed by the capital, Mexico City.

Mexico is a country of rich, colorful, and diverse culture, powerfully evoked in its art, architecture, and music. Many will instantly recognize the vivid portraits of Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, and the nation’s modern identity has been shaped by the art of the ‘Big Three’ of Mexican muralism - Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros, and José Clemente Orozco - artists who were commissioned by the government to adorn public buildings with large murals depicting scenes from Mexican history.
