Day Two

On my way to the pyramids of Teotihuacán

On these tiny vacations that I had, on my head there was a strong desire to do a small trip, even if I was about to do it on my own. Luckily, my boyfriend wanted to travel as well, so we decided to go to Teotihuacán (even when there were holidays for the rest of the people too!).
Personally, I really enjoy visiting these kind of places -I mean archeological ones- that preserve a very important part of our identity as a true mexicans:the remains of the history of our ancestors and their cultures. When I was young, and I was focused on reading about Mexican History (because my mother studied History, she provided to my sisters and I some very valuable books), I was delighted with all the information about those cvilizations that inhabited the very same place on which we currently live on now.
When I had the possibility later to visit some archeological places I felt completely excited, but at that time I didn't realize the damage that some architectural pieces have, and I didn't notice as well that the damage is not only because of the time, the pollution, etc. It's so dissapointing see that many people do not feel any respect or simply they just don't care about preserving this places in the best way as possible, for the next generations.
On my visit to Teotihuacán I completely enjoyed the landscape, and of course climbing the pyramids was awesome, but I couldn't help noticing the great dammage that some stupid people has done to the pyramids. And I'm talking about the person that decide to promote turism to Teotihuacán by making some works and changes on the pyramids, damaging them deplorably. We should stop ignoring this activities, and promote a change on our way of thinking by showing some respect to those who come before us.
