History of the place and interesting facts
Cholula is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities and played an important role in Mexico's pre-Columbian history. The city was an important religious and cultural centre for the Toltecs and later the Aztecs, who built the impressive pyramid of Cholula to pay homage to their gods.
With the arrival of the Spanish in the 16th century, Cholula was heavily influenced, leading to a mixture of indigenous and European traditions. The city became an important place of pilgrimage during the colonial period and retains its religious significance to this day.

The culture of Cholula is strongly characterised by indigenous traditions and colonial heritage. The city is known for its impressive churches, especially the church of Nuestra Señora de los Remedios, which sits atop the pyramid.
