In this video we are exploring the archaeological ruins in Tzintzuntzan, Michoacan, Mexico! The site is a located on a hill overlooking Lake Patzquaro located about 100 kilometers from Morelia, Mexico. This is a perfect place to explore the archaeological ruins from the Tarascan Empire of 1200-1521 CE. The name Tzintzuntzan comes from the Purepecha word for “place of the hummingbirds.” The site consists of five Ya’catas round like pyramid structures. At the end of the video we visit the on-site museum.
