Mexico City Hotels
Mexico City, the capital city of Mexico, traces its roots back to 1325. The Aztecs built Tenochtitlan in a valley among the high plateaus of what is now the center of Mexico. The current town square is built on the same spot on which Montezuma's palace once stood. Officially known as Ciudad de Mexico, this large metropolitan now serves as the country's economic, political, and cultural center. Visitors seeking authentic Mexican culture flock to Mexico City for world-class museums, archeological treasures, delectable cuisine, colonial neighborhoods, and a spectacular nightlife. Tourists line up for bullfights at Plaza Mexico, Mexican rodeos at Rancho del Charro, and professional soccer matches at Estadio Azteca and Estadio Olimpico. Tree-lined streets, fountains, monuments, and parks — including Chapultepec Park — offer a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of the city.
