Murals

I was surprised by the variety of murals that are still on the walls at various places we visited. Many of these were not part of the main Teotihuacán site, and many of them are in pretty bad shape, some still exposed to the elements. I believe that many of the murals have been transferred to museums for safekeeping.

A friend thought this one looked like a Hieronymus Bosch painting, and I don't disagree!
