About Mexico City (Back To Top)

Mexico City is one of the largest metropolitan areas in the world with a population of approximately 22 million. It was founded by the Aztecs in the XIV century and conquered by the Spaniards in the first quarter of the sixteen-century. Mexico City was occupied by the Americans and by the French during the seventeenth century.  Mexico has many traces of indigenous and Spanish civilizations, and the mixture of both remains as pyramids, palaces, public administrative offices and churches. Some to be mentioned because of their magnificence or originality are: the pyramids of Teotihuacan and the Templo Mayor in downtown; palaces of private ownership and many governmental offices in downtown, v.gr. Palacio Nacional; the Metropolitan Cathedral and the Villa de Guadalupe are clear examples of religious monuments. Mexican treasures are confined in beautiful old buildings or in functional ones with different types of modern beauty like the National Museum of Anthropology, the Museum of Modern Art and the Palace of Fine Arts (it functions mainly as a theater for concerts, etc).

About Colonia Roma (Back To Top)

Founded in the early 1900s, this district was originally thought of as a settlement for affluent families. For this reason, its aligned streets and mansions reflect the architectural fashion of French influence proper of the 1920s and the more sober but not less spectacular luxury of the 1930s. Its parks are decorated with antique fountains and statues full of reminiscence of days gone. Colonia Roma, today, has been trapped in the midst of the intense traffic of several of the most important avenues of the city, commercial districts and social gatherings. It is in the geographical center of Mexico City with easy access to all kinds of transportation.
