That moment when you spotted something new that attracts your person with that mental attitude is never old.
Thrilled to see colorful Mexico on your channel!

The church was very pretty, and seemed to be in excellent condition. I need to add Cholula to my bucket list.

Exploring the Great Pyramid of Cholula sounds incredible—it's amazing to learn about the world's largest pyramid by volume! Looking forward to more adventures on your channel!

One reason I could not travel like this is the limited selection of food. All those refined carbs! ☠️

Fascinating video!

I love how there is this mad rad shaman with aromatic incense and drum right in front of the church built on top of an ancient pyramid thang and the hollyish music of your choice…. Ah I missed the ringing of the bells as you were narrating and the lovely people around trying to get in your camera frame for something😊…. Good stuff. 😇😂🎉


Ahh the 24:28 ending is epic I must say, just my opinion 😂😮

Thanks for this lovely video

I remember learning how to say Popacatapetyl in primary school geography class. Lots of laughter to get it right😂. I feel the church is one of the most beautiful you have ever shown us. Many of the pyramids of ancient times were built on crossing ley lines as are many churches also. Happy New Year Gabriel.

I read the title and then immediately did some Google searching which told me Giza is taller. Then being the informative person you are you informed your viewers that true by volume this pyramid is bigger but the pyramid of Giza is taller. Thanks for sharing as always Gabriel.

11:46 Looks like a savory scone. They often have sausage, ham or bacon as well as honey or maple syrup. Happy new year!

I enjoy your fascination with churches. Mexico has many grand and ornate Baroque cathedrals.
