Not much...They buried the most impressive temples, and built their own churches right on top of them. An Aztec temple was uncovered right on the ground of the National Cathedral, in Mexico City. Gaudeloupe church, I think, was built upon a place sacred to the Aztecs. Very often, a church built under a 'hill' will be over a buried pyramid. They also drained the lake where the Aztec's Mexico City was built (then called Tenochtitlan) and wrecked the canals; replacing the canals with roads.

chitza nitza was mayan not aztec. they built tenochtitlan, xochicalco, and other sites. they did not build teotihuacan, but possibly occupied it. it is not certain who built teotihuacan, but its construction has been attributed to the olmecs.
