the main attraction of the town is the archeological zone of teotenango, which is located on tetepetl hill, just north-northwest of the main plaza of the modern town. inside the town itself, there are two large art nouveau style structures and two churches of interest. the first art nouveau structure is the municipal theater located in the municipal palace just off the main square. the second is a large building covering nearly an entire block, which is now used at the benito juarez garcia primary school. both were built during the "porfirato," a period of time at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries when this building style was very much in vogue in mexico. the main and original church of the town is the parish of the assumption of mary which dates from the 16th century. it is a typical example of a baroque church of the provinces, something which is disappearing as these old churches age. the other church is called the temple of el calvario, which is of neo-classic design. this temple is located where the main east-west street ends at the foot of the tetepetl hill. it has a rectangular name and forms a small latin cross.
