Things to do in Mexcaltitán

  1. Restaurant Alberca

    Accessible by a rickety wooden walkway, Alberca has a great lagoon view and a menu completely devoted to shrimp. Don’t leave town without trying the local specialty of albóndigas de camarón (battered and fried shrimp balls served with a savory broth) or perhaps a rich jugo de camarón (shrimp juice) or paté de camarón.

  2. Museo Aztlán del Origen

    The Museo Aztlán del Origen is small but enchanting. Among the exhibits are many interesting ancient objects and a reproduction of a fascinating long scroll, the Códice Ruturini, telling the story of the Aztec peoples’ travels, with notes in Spanish.
