About Mexico City

As one the world's largest cities, Mexico City offers visitors a world-class capital that bridges an historic past and a vital future. Today, Mexico City sits in a high valley surrounded by mountains. Founded in 1325, when the Aztec Empire established their capital city Tenochtitlán, much of the land of modern Mexico City was covered by Lake Texcoco. The invasion by Spain in 1521 destroyed Tenochtitlán and the Aztec Empire. Ultimately, the Spaniards drained the lake due to flooding. Today the Colonial Era lives on in monumental architecture and quiet Catholic churches. But the 21st century Mexico City is also a center of commerce and industry as witnessed by the World Trade Center Mexico and thriving market places. Guests of our Mexico City Radisson hotel can travel back in time at Plaza de las Tres Culturas. Here three cultures meet in the guise of a Colonial Era church and the Aztec ruins of Templo Mayor surrounded by the contemporary city. The Centro Histórico and nearby Zócalo, the third largest public square in the world, are home to the impressive Catedral Metropolitana. But Mexico City offers more than large churches and impressive museums like the Museo Nacional de Antropología. There are dozens of more intimate museums devoted to a single focus like the False Coin Museum. Anahuacalli Museum was designed by Diego Rivera to house his world-class collection of pre-Columbian artifacts, and Museo Frida Kahlo was the home of Kahlo and Diego Rivera and now houses her art. But beyond Aztec ruins, unique museums and other Mexico City attractions, guests of our Mexico City Radisson hotel ought to save time to watch a soccer game by one of the local Mexican soccer teams like Cruz Azul. Visit the Zona Rosa and stroll the pedestrian friendly streets, visit charming shops and dine at a great restaurant. Take your time and discover what brought the Aztec, Spanish and the rest of the world to this City of Palaces.

Did you know?

On September 14, 1847, Mexico City was invaded by General Winfield Scott of the United States of America. This invasion forced the nation to cede Northern California and New Mexico to the invading party. Mexican soldiers were so resolved that their beloved country not be dissected that they fought to the death. In fact, some soldiers at the Castillo de Chapultepec wrapped themselves in their country's flag and flung themselves from the castle's walls to their deaths in order to keep the flags from being confiscated.
