Las Pyramides de Teotihuacan en Mexico (The Pyramids of Teotihuacan in Mexico)

I can honestly say that I am one of the very fortunate and few people in the world that can say I have visited the Teotihuacan Pyramids of Mexico. This national and can maybe even  be considered a global or world wide historic site is the preservation of the great pyramids of Teotihuacan in Mexico that were built by the Aztec Empire long ago, the city is thought to have been established around 100 BC. The city may have lasted until sometime between the 7th and 8th centuries, and to this present day still exist and have been kept in the most preserved conditon. This site is said to be historic due to the fact that here in Teotihuacan was where the Aztec Empire and along with the Mayans basically lived and based their entire lifestyles around this "city" of pyramids that they had so how "built" themselves and was considering one of the most advanced civilizations of the current time in both the America's and  in the world. Which has lead many scientist and archivist to question this strange phenomenom. On this national site there are no plaques, the only standing structures are the amazing pyramids that stand as tall as an 8 story building. Although there is being as much done to keep and preserve the pyramids in the best quality as possible, there are some rules that must be followed in order to help preserve these extraordinary structures. For example, there are signs that say to keep off certain pyramids or structures because they are deterioring and falling apart, so in order to prevent this they do have rules ot abide by. Here at the Teotihuacan Pyramids of Mexico there is one partticular reason as to why people from all over the country and the world come to Mexcio to see these incredible pyramids for themselves. The main reason many come to see these pyramids is to witness and walk up "la Pyramide del Sol" or "The Pyramid of the Sun". This pyramid is at about the  equivalent of a 9 to 10 story building, and once you are at the top of the pyramid you are supposed to set you hands on the power source of the sun that gives energy to the pyramid and also fills you body with new and helthy energy, whiping out all of the bad energy that is in your body. I speak from experience, I actually had the chance to climb this enourmous pyramid and set my hands on the source of the pyramid to be "filled with new energy".
