Nestled in a sacred valley, at an altitude of about 1,700 meters (5,560 feet) above sea level, to the south of Mexico City, lies the town of Tepoztlán. The surrounding landscape has been shaped by millions of years of volcanic eruptions and erosion. Due to its unusually mild climate and the presence of many caves in the mountains, the area around Tepoztlán has been continuously inhabited for at least the past 10,000 years. The Aztecs held it sacred and built a temple there in homage to its eponymous deity Tepoztecatl. In more recent years, Tepoztlán has become associated with a large number of UFO sightings and other unexplained phenomena, which keep adding to the mystery of the place.
