Información
The Cantona Archaeological Zone Tour will take you to the first municipality known as Oriental, which is located in the eastern part of Puebla. It was given this name in honour of the old Oriental Railway that connected Mexico City to the port of Veracruz.
Once you are in the town of Oriental, you’ll visit the Centro Ferrocarrilero (Railroad Centre), which was founded in 1892 and is part of the Sistema Nacional del Ferrocarril Oriental. Later on, you’ll travel to the Cantona archaeological site, located 55 miles northeast of Puebla.
At Cantona, which means “House of the Sun”, you’ll see the remnants of this walled city, an archaeological site that houses the most ball game courts. This pre-Hispanic site was founded between 100 and 600 AD and is located on the ancient trade route between the Gulf of Mexico and the Central Highlands. On your next visit to the city of Puebla, don’t forget to join the Cantona Archaeological Zone Tour.
