 | | Teresa S., Co-op Member | | The Aztec Ruins are a spectacular place to visit. You will see the architectural splendor of an advanced civilization who left their historical mark for all to enjoy. Imagine the skills the early Indians had for building such magnificent structures. Other area similar to the Aztec Ruins are Bryce Canyon and Chaco Canyon. Take along a sack lunch and sit where the ancient Indians sat and lived! |
