The capital of
Mexico, once the centre of
Aztec civilization.
Mexico City is
the world's third-largest metropolis. Set over 2400m up in its shallow mountain bowl and crammed with over 20
million people.
Mexico City is one of the world's most densely populated urban areas. One moment the city is all
Latin beats, glamour and excitement; the next it's drabness, poverty, suffocating crowds and rancid smells. In
spite of the negatives, Mexico City is a magnet for Mexicans and visitors alike. You certainly won't be bored in
this complex city. Glossy magazine ads usually tout Mexico's paradisiacal beach resorts and ancient ruins, but
cosmopolitan, historic
Mexico City
is a vital destination in itself.

interesting buildings both colonial and modern, and museums. Must visit places Pirámides de Teotihuacan, Bosque
