Had shown some of these pictures before...but I added new ones as well.

Just showing some new members what Mexico City looks like...definitely not dusty little Tijuana...

Thanks for posting those, Hector--very, very cool. I like how this ultra-modern architecture is represented, but there's still a real stately presence there, like in this picture. Very beautiful.

Also the Zócalo...and Chapultapec castle...where the Mexican army, plus a bunch of teenaged cadets...made their last stand against invading American forces...

I'll stick with the Yucatan side for me, but it's cool to see photos. The architecture is amazing. I love the use of dead spots, like the house on concrete stilts. I also really like the stepped complex with the terraced yards.

The architecture is what caught my eye as well.

Very impressive and beautiful city sites but OMG. . . the suburbs go on FOREVER!

[Hector]

This is one of the photos that make me say...WHAT???



Must be some wealthy dude who didn't have a view...but decided to make one anyway...

^Amazing!
....but I'm glad that I don't live next door to that house

I love Mexico City, it's an awesome place.

I would NEVER go to Mexico City again. Damn police tried to extort dos mil pesos from me for driving on the wrong day...I had foreign plates and he thought he would make a quick buck off of me but he didn´t. I protested asking to see his captain. He let us go. I will stick with Saltillo and the monster cafe...

I've never been to Mexico City but I've been to Valladolid several times. One time the damn taxi driver tried to charge me 100 pesos for a twelve block ride to the second class bus terminal, but I didn't budge.
I'll stick with Florida and a fistful of Cialis; and now a word from our sponsor...

Years ago I went to Mexico crossing over from the Brownsville, TX border. My trip was interesting to say the least. The Taxi driver was a hoot. He was complaining about how bad the other people drove there (while he was weaving in and out of traffic himself). Good times!
