Preservation and Updates
The National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) confirmed the reopening, highlighting that the preservation of the infrastructure has been completed. Additionally, the network of trails has been updated based on new information gathered during the consolidation of the architectural reintegration and monuments of the ancient city’s squares.
