Temazcal Basama, in Cholula, Puebla state, Mexico. This traditional steam dome hosts an herbal sweat ceremony, in a town known for its rich pre-Hispanic and colonial heritage.
Insider tip — Temazcal Basama lies in San Andrés Cholula, in the shadow of the Great Pyramid of Cholula — the largest pyramid by volume in the world. Receiving a temazcal just meters from this 1,000-year-old pre-Hispanic monument lends the ceremony an incomparable sacred dimension.
