My experience in Coatepec de bateas or San Nicolas Coatepec is summarized in a social-religious experience, this trip has given me the opportunity to know and study the form of human interaction that the inhabitants of Coatepec have. The people are very friendly and very open to the oublico so that they know its history and the long history of traditions that the town has. I have really been amazed since I had the opportunity to meet Miguel, a very spiritual and friendly person, who tells us about his experience interpreting Jesus of Nazareth during Holy Week. In addition, Coatepec has a very kind person named Adan, who has the historical records of Coatepec throughout time, he shares that he has 40% of the complete information, he only seeks to finish and manage to finish the complete history of his place of origin . From personal experience I totally recommend visiting San Nicolas Coatepec because it is a place between mountains and many natural landscapes that are worth knowing.

During the week I visited San Pedro Tecomatepec in Ixtapan de la Sal. There I learned about the artisanal making of clay jars in the community with the help of Carlos and his father Alejandro. In the photo you can see the oven in which the clay pieces are baked after molding them and before painting and decorating them.

Artisan from Jaltocan, Hidalgo.

We visited an artisan who is dedicated to the elaboration of candles, which he makes and is the product of an inheritance inherited from his father-in-law, each one has an approximate size of thirty-five centimeters and a price of six pesos, which he sells in threes for twenty Mexican pesos, the material with which it is made is brought from China.

They are traded during important events such as "Fiesta de los Muertos" and "Navidad" (Christmas).

My field group and I were up a hill when we were going up more and more, until we reached a point where we got too tired, but within the bad thing, which was the enormous fatigue we had, it was fun, regardless of the heat that was on that day I liked it too much, there was also the opportunity to get to know other people and trust more I guess.

This day that I shared with my friends This day that I shared with my friends was very pleasant since we lived outside the faculty in a different environment. Just like This day that I shared with my friends was very pleasant since we lived outside the faculty in a different environment. Just as we enjoyed the beautiful views that this archaeological zone offers.This archaeological zone is very important for its cultural history over time. Enjoying it with my friends is very warm and pleasant.

Although it was only for a while, we had an incredible time except for the heat, which is very strong and can dehydrate you if you don't eat food. Malinalco is a very beautiful town that is recommended to visit to spend days of rest in tranquility .

This place is used as a meeting center for women, since this place is for washing clothes, the moment they meet, a process begins where the objective is to socialize.

When we went there it was empty so it was very quiet, the water is very clean and there were very small fish.

The place is very nice to relax for a while.

This photograph portrays a lady with whom I lived during my stay in Jaltocan, Hidalgo.

We visited her in the community of Cuatecomaco, Hidalgo, she showed us that she is dedicated to making handmade embroidery and typical of the region where she lives, she also told us that she is originally from Puebla, however she moved to Hidalgo because of her husband and little by little she got used to the environment, I was especially impressed by the experience with this person because she invited us to eat at her house, some of my companions who were there and I helped her to prepare the food that she was going to offer us, the experience in general was very warm, friendly and comfortable, we laughed and talked a lot with the lady.

In this image we can see a large rock, this is located on the sacred mountain of Hueyamalucan in the town of San Jerónimo Acazulco in Ndöngü as the locals refer to it. Last year I had the opportunity to attend a ritual offering with the Otomíes of this region of the state of Mexico. San Jerónimo Acazulco is located in the municipality of Ocoyoacac in the State of Mexico, the meeting was on Friday, November 18 at 10:00 pm to climb the mountain and begin the pre-Hispanic celebrations that the Yühü still carry out. These offerings have to be made to each rock scattered throughout the mountain in specific places of divinity and knowledge, first a ritual of gratitude, protection and presentation of the offering was carried out, where I was able to observe various foods and plants such as: pulque, water , atole, guavas, medicinal plants, rosemary, bougainvillea, fennel, arnica, tlaxcales, pinole, honey, corn, beans, oranges, cocoa and tobacco, to name a few, the ritual was at the home of the Shaman or healer who was in charge of lighting the fire, making songs and playing the snail, we made an offering on each rock until we reached the image that was the penultimate one, this seemed to me to be a space where we can observe the syncretization where two different cultures, the Christian religion trying to conquer a thought Mesoamerican, on top of the rock, there is a Christian cross, making a symbol of submission to the inhabitants of that place. The offerings are on the occasion of the Lord of Lightning, Tlaloc, on the other hand the ecclesiastics worship the divine face, there is a construction of a church that coexists with a purely Mesoamerican sacred enclosure. At the end of this offering, we headed to the last one where we arrived at 7:00 am, we saw the sunrise while the Otomí group made preparations to move to the inipi and cleanse our spirit as gratitude and strength

In the municipality of Santiago Tianguistenco there is a very extensive flea market where they sell a variety of merchandise, but something that stands out a lot are the garments they knit with ribbon or wool, they have a variety of ties and hats. Likewise, clothing, food, fruit and vegetables predominate, as well as some other chit-chat.

My experience in Coatepec can be summed up as a social-religious experience. This trip gave me the opportunity to get to know and study the way in which the inhabitants of Coatepec interact. The people are very friendly and open to the public, eager to share their history and the long tradition of traditions that the city holds. I was truly amazed from the moment I met Juan, a very spiritual and friendly person who shared his experience interpreting Moses during Holy Week. Additionally, Coatepec is home to a very kind person named Maria, who has been keeping historical records of Coatepec for a long time. She reveals that she has about 40% of the complete information and is determined to finish and complete the full history of her hometown. From my personal experience, I highly recommend visiting San Nicolas Coatepec as it is a place nestled among mountains and surrounded by many beautiful natural landscapes worth exploring.

In my field work experience I was able to observe this mural called "from Xantolo to Mictlán"

It is considered by its creators to be the largest mural in Hidalgo. It measures 456 square meters and was created by ten artists of Mexican and foreign origin.

It is located on one of the exterior walls of the Benito Juárez primary school in the Downtown area, next to the municipal garden.
