Cholula, Puebla, Mexico: A Blend of Ancient History and Vibrant Culture This photograph, taken circa early 1930s, showcases the enchanting scene of Cholula, a historic town nestled in the Mexican state of Puebla. The image reveals the unique juxtaposition of the ancient Great Pyramid of Cholula and the Nuestra Senora de los Remedios Church, both standing proud against the clear blue sky. The Great Pyramid of Cholula, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is not immediately recognizable as a pyramid due to the extensive overgrowth that covers its massive structure. Originally belonging to the ancient Mesoamerican empire of Teotihuacan, Cholula was conquered by the Mixtecs in 800 AD and later by the Aztecs in the 15th century. The pyramid, which was dedicated to the god Quetzalcoatl, is the largest pyramid in the world by volume, making it a significant archaeological site. In the foreground of the photograph, the colorful rooftops and domes of Cholula's buildings can be seen, providing a glimpse into the vibrant and rich history of this town. The Nuestra Senora de los Remedios Church, perched atop the pyramid, adds a striking contrast to the ancient structure. This beautiful and historic site remains an essential part of Mexico's cultural heritage, inviting visitors to explore the fascinating blend of ancient Mesoamerican culture and Spanish colonial influences.
