Cholula


During our trip to Puebla we took a 15 minute bus ride over to Cholula, a smaller city which is famous for its church built on top of a pyramid. It was certainly beautiful. One of the best parts was seeing the volcano, Popocatepetl, which is currently smoking.

We also saw Popo's girlfriend volcano, Iztaccihuatl, but it was more difficult to see because its not as high. You can read about the legend of the two volcanoes here.

I got really car sick on the bus ride over, but really enjoyed the view at the top of this hill!
