Tepotzotlan. Magical village, nice sample of the baroque architecture.
About the Place.
Tepotzotlan is a city in the state of Mexico. The name Tepotzotlan is of Nahuatl origin and means “among humpbacks,” referring to the shape of the hills that surround this area. The town became a major educational center during the colonial period when the Jesuits established the College of Saint Francisco Javier. Today this complex houses the National Museum of Viceroyalty, with one of the largest collections of art and other objects from this time period. Tepotzotlán has been named one of the "Magical Village of Mexico".
