Mexicos The Gorge of the Virgin Archaeological Site
U.S. Passport Card Requirements - Three New Archaeological Sites for Your Enjoyment
Mexico continues to expand its cultural offer with the National Institute of Anthropology and History’s (INAH) opening of three new archaeological sites in 2009. The first site to open will be the Cañada de la Virgen (The Gorge of the Virgin), in the state of Guanajuato, located about 18 miles away from San Miguel de Allende. This “cosmic watch,” as it is called by astronomers and archaeologists will only allow 300 visitors per day accompanied by guides.
The state of Chiapas will open Chiapa de Corzo, where one can tour the Cañón del Sumidero (Sumidero Canyon) or visit the ex Convent of Santo Domingo to see some archaeological findings. The Bocana del Rio Copalita (Lagoon of the Copalita River), which was discovered in 1985 in Huatulco in the state of Oaxaca, will open its doors to display the cultures of the lower region of the Oaxacan coast.
