I went to Mexico as an exchange student, and after a week I fell in love! This is a vibrant place filled with history, culture, love and life! I have decided that I may be American in name and origin, but my soul is Mexican. I owe it all to my stay in Mexico City!
The biggest downfalls of the city are the smog, the piropos that we blonde ...

A wonderful city
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/18/06
For the adventurous in spirit, this is a wonderful place to go. One can hardly see the city in a week but if someone was to go here I would recommend an afternoon in Coyohuacan. A day trip to Teotihuacan is a must. (One can go there by getting a bus from the North Bus Station which one can get to via the subway). One will also find museums near ...
THIS WAS MY SECOND TIME TO MEXICO CITY. THE FIRS TIME WAS IN 1998 AND RECENTLY WENT FOR A FEW DAYS. I DID NOT FULLY ENJOY MY STAY. THERE IS A LOT OF CONTRAST POOR/RICH. I GREW UP IN SOUTH AMERICA SO IT WAS NOT A CULTURE SHOCK TO ME. THE NEGATIVES WERE THE HEAVY CONGESTED TRAFFIC, THE SMOG, THE CROWDED STREETS, CROWDED METRO, THE DISTANCE FROM ON ...

One of the great capital cities of the world!

Many visitors try to avoid M.C. because of its bad rap... Once you are there, you understand why - despite all its problems - this city is a magnet for everyone. A huge historical core, beautiful architecture, superb museums, incredible nice and helpful people and the incomparable Mexican food! Give Mexico City a chance... you'll be surprised how much you will like it.
I went there for a business trip and end up spending the weekend there. The city has a lot to offer, great history and historic buildings. TouriBus is definitly a good bet if you want to explore the city. For 110 peso, it takes you to all the major sites around the main part of the town.
Your might end up spending a lot of time at Zocalo, where ...
Stepping into Mexico City is like experiencing a modern Time Machine. How to explain? For that matter a trip to Mexico is for those with tough resolve. Mexico City is the heart of the country and it's alive and teaming with stores, restaurants, museums, cathedrals and festivities on any given day. There is an iconoclastic mix of tourist ...
Because of the fog,the smog the pollution and ofcourse the altitude,we try to get alot of visit in an abbreviated time allotment. Mexico city is composed of colonias,similar to arrondisments in Paris.From the poorer barriors to the ritzy realms,Mexico is as stratified as any large city,and with an abundance of people its easily the largest in ...

One of the greatest capital cities of the world
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/17/05
Pros:
It has it all
Cons:
It has it all (including safety concerns)
Mexico City has suffered of a extremely bad reputation in the last years... All can I say is that there are worse places in the world and even in some of the reviewer's countries. This is a world-class capital city and simply has it all you ever wish to see or do in ...
