flourished between 100 BC and 600 AD. Its inhabitants commanded an
empire which stretched as far a present day Guatemala. |

Wooden temples would have sat on top of these pyramids where ceremonies
were performed and sacrifices made to the gods. |

 |
| Taxco is an old silver mining town, now a World Heritage
Site. The town is built on a steep mountainside with narrow, windy
streets and white painted buildings. The silver mines are now closed
but silvercraft workshops remain and goods are exported from here around
the world. |
