During his closing remarks at General Conference on October 2, 2022, President Russell M. Nelson announced plans to construct four new temples in the Mexico City metropolitan area. He explained, "We are also planning to build multiple temples in selected large metropolitan areas where travel time to an existing temple is a major challenge."[1] The Mexico City Mexico Temple was dedicated in 1983, and the Mexico City Benemerito Mexico Temple was announced in April 2022.

The Tula Mexico Temple will be located in Tula, formally known as Tula de Allende, an ancient city in the Mexican state of Hidalgo. It is located about 60 miles north of Mexico City with about 100,000 residents. The new temple in Tula will be the second in the state of Hidalgo. The area was once known as the capital of the Toltec empire. [2]
