Morelos is a fantastic place, a dream-like state brimming with nature, adventure, art, mysticism and history, with something for everybody.

visit Tepoztlan, a famous power point thriving with magic wonders. The magic from this town is guarded by an eternal giant: el Tepozteco Hill, whose summit awaits to energize you past its roads, encompassed with vegetation and beauty. The hilltop is a ceremonial center where all kinds of energies fuse together. Once you reach it, you can marvel at the pyramid of the Sacred Valley, where emperor Moctezuma used to meditate. Walking down the cobbled streets of Tepoztlan is like walking through a dream. There you can buy unique handicraft, enjoy its famous icecream or simply enjoy a great destination to unwind on a spa or stay up late at night. You must visit Xochicalco, a pre-Hispanic town of great artistic influence, home to a number of artists from all over Mesoamerica.
