Round the World 2: Pan-Americana: Conquistadors, Aztecs and Incas

Judith Jones travels through Mexico from northern Chihuahua to the central state of Zacatecas learning about the history of the Spanish conquistadors, visiting the pre-Incan Toltec site of Tula, and discovering civilizations which pre-dated the Mayans and Aztecs. In Michoacán she witnesses the butterfly fishermen of Lake Patzcuaro, while in Mexico City she visits the remains of the Aztec temple Huitzilopochtli and the National Palace before travelling to Cuernavaca and a 900 year old Aztec Pyramid in Tepoztlán.
