Xochitécatl is an archaeological site in the state of Tlaxcala in Central Mexico. It is a ceremonial site that was used over a 3,000 year time span. Visitors should visit this site together with nearby Cacaxtla. The two sites are only 10km apart and they share some common history, but they're worlds apart in their cultures and world views.
The cheapest way to get to Xohitecatl is to take a bus to San Martín Texmelucan, which is about 10 minutes from the site by taxi.
