Mexico Mexico's landscape and its people reflect the country's extraordinary history - part Indian, part Spanish. One look at this country is enough to remind visitors that there is nothing new about the so-called New World. Despite the considerable colonial legacy and rampant modernization, there are still over 50 distinct indigenous peoples, each with their own language, maintaining vestiges of their traditional lifestyles.

The plaza was first paved in the 1520s by Cortés with stones from the ruins of the temples and palaces of the Aztec city of Tenochtitlán, the site on which Mexico City was built. Tenochtitlán was built in the middle of a lake, so many of Mexico City's older buildings and churches are sinking into the boggy ground on which they were constructed. Filling the entire eastern side of the Zócalo is the Palacio Nacional (National Palace), built on the site of an Aztec palace and formerly used to house the viceroys of New Spain. It is now home to the offices of the president, a museum and the dramatic revolutionary murals of Diego Rivera, which chronicle Mexico's history. If you want to know more: http://www.mexicocity.gob.mx In 1990 the Mexico City metropolitan area, which includes the Federal District and 27 adjoining urban boroughs of the State of Mexico, had 15 million inhabitants; that is, 18.4% of the country's population. In 1970 it had 9 million inhabitants, and in 1980, 14 million. Thus, during the 70’s the city grew by 4.5% each year, but by only 0.7% each year during the 80’s. It is estimated that in 1995 Mexico City had 15.5 million inhabitants. As can be noted, the City has reduced its annual rate of population growth to a level below both the national annual rate (2%), and the overall urban rate of growth (3.7%). It is, therefore, now the metropolitan area with the lowest rate of population growth in the country. Thus, it is clear that the rate of growth of the City will gradually decrease and, if current tendencies persist, it is highly unlikely that it will reach a level of 20 million inhabitants in the short term, as was once thought, at least in the area made up of the Federal District and the adjoining urban boroughs.
