Steps on the Pyramid of the Sun

The Pyramid of the Sun has 248 steps on its west side. As of 2020, one can no longer climb the Pyramid of the Sun at Teotihuacan due to a prohibition by INAH (the National Institute of Anthropology and History) to preserve the site and ensure visitor safety, owing to the dangerous and steep steps.

Parakeets

A parakeet is any one of many small- to medium-sized parrot species, in multiple genera, that generally have long tail feathers. The two basic parakeet color types are green and blue.

Parakeets at Sylvan Heights Bird Park are in a small protected enclosure where visitors can feed them, and the birds sit on the visitors’ hands or heads.
