Exploring the Tunnels of Teotihuacán

Season 1 Episode 1 | 3m 04s

Teotihuacán was the great capital of Mesoamerica, and one of the cradles of Western Civilization. Alongside archaeologist Sergio Gómez Chávez, John Leguizamo explores the network of tunnels beneath the great pyramids of Teotihuacán that was unearthed in 2003 – originally built two thousand years ago, without the use of machinery or power tools.
