Description
This mystical and esoteric tour of Mexico City will take us to discover some of its most enigmatic and historical places. We will start at our meeting point at the Cibeles fountain, then we will go to the Tlatelolco Ruins, where the energy of our ancestors can be perceived. We will explore the Plaza de las Tres Culturas, a fusion of pre-Hispanic, colonial and modern times, a symbol of Mexican identity and the mysticism of the tragedies that took place there.
In Tlatelolco, the discovery of an Aztec cemetery has created an atmosphere of mystery; its spiritual energy is said to influence the area, and stories of unexplained tragedies reinforce its fame as a place of great historical and spiritual power.
Our next stop is the iconic Sonora Market, famous for its mystical and esoteric atmosphere. Here we will delve into Santeria, herbalism and other Mexican spiritual traditions, understanding the syncretism that defines our culture.
Where we will discover the secrets of the ancestral culture of Afro-Caribbean origin called Santeria. Details about their gods and deities, the power of plants and the importance of animal sacrifice to carry out ceremonial activities.
We will finish in Colonia Doctores, visiting the altar to Santa Muerte, where we will connect with the popular spirituality and the feelings of those who venerate this sacred figure.
Throughout this experience, each place will offer transforming emotions, allowing us to live closely the mysticism, history and traditions of Mexico City and above all a logical reason to explain the esoteric practices and popular beliefs of the people who live in Mexico City.
