Welcome to the Aztecs at Mexicolore!

Mexicolore is a small independent artefact-based teaching team providing in-school workshops and teaching resources on the Aztecs. Since 1980 our team have made over 2,000 visits to schools and museums throughout England. Find out more about us by clicking on our Teachers' Page...

"Mexicolore is the only organisation in the United Kingdom that for the last 25 years has been devoted to promoting Mexico's Aztec heritage, presenting it in a unique and extraordinary way." (Minister Ignacio Durán, Cultural Attaché, Mexican Embassy, UK)

In support of our team workshops on Mexico and the Aztecs in which over 125,000 children have already participated, this constantly updated, 100% educational website, based in London, offers a wealth of carefully researched information and resources on Aztec culture, all designed to inspire, inform, intrigue and encourage serious students of the Aztecs (and ancient Mesoamerica in general) of ALL ages.
