A map showing the original layout of the Aztec city of Tenochtitlan

This is the east face of the Cathedral looming over the site of the Templo Mayor.  I imagine it's possible that the Cathedral still sits over the lost Aztec treasure.  Wouldn't that be ironic.

A market of artesania, snacks and all kinds of other weird things stretches across the front of the Templo Mayor.
