Templo Mayor Museum
General view of the Templo Mayor Museum with the archaeological
zone. The Museum is set in the heart of downtown Mexico City in the area
known as the Historical Center. It was built by architect Pedro Ramírez
Vázquez, who envisioned a discrete structure that would not compete
with the colonial surroundings. The Museum has four floors, three of them
for permanent exhibitions and one of them with offices for the director,
museum administration and research staff, among other functions. Other
departments are located in the basement, where there is also an auditorium
with a capacity for 139 people.
