Good staff
They don’t allow water. Many museums do not allow water, but they will hold it for you. These people will not do that. Mexico City is at a high altitude and you need water. I went in while my wife had to wait outside to hold the water. I found that most of the good stuff could be viewed from the terrace which you can go on for free. I recommend you pass up paying admission to go see this place unless you are really really interested in Mayan history.

Tenochtitlan Main Temple
Tempo Mayor is next to the Cathedral, which made it convenient to view the many other Centro Historico attractions. The Tempo Mayor attraction was worth the time on my last day in CDMX. The admission was 85 pesos as indicated by the signage and cashier. However, I found it odd that the cashier who was visible sick, then chose to wipe his nose with his fingers, then hand me back 15 pesos in change with the same fingers. As for history, the Templo Mayor was the main temple of the Mexica people in their capital city of Tenochtitlan, which is now Mexico City.
