The Hidalgo Metro station is a nest of LADRONES AND THE MEXICAN GOVERNMENT DOES NOT DO ANYTHING TO STOP THEM. WE WERE ROBED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY, GOING TO EL ZOCALO IN FEBRUARY 2008.
THEY TOOK OUR MONEY AND CREDIT CARDS. AVOID THE CROWDS IN MEXICO CITY. NEVER STAY AT THE CENTRO HISTORICO, GET A DECENT HOTEL AROUND THE ANGEL DE LA INDEPENDENCIA. RASMUSSENS
