Nice collection. I just came back from there. The highlights of my trip were Chapultepec Park and Chapultepec Castle as well as the Condesa and Roma neighborhoods. I also went to Guanajuato. It was a good trip in all.

WOW!

I've been to Mexico City DF, but that was back in 1977. I was only seven at the time, so I remember only things a kid would pay attention to. Like the park, the museum, the canal district and the pyramids.

I like how the new skyscrapers in the city are unashamedly modern. I think architecture in the US has gotten pretty timid.

Great pics. I have never been to MC but I always hear great things about Mexico City from relatives that keep on going over and over. They always talk about how big it is even though they live in DFW, Chicago, and Houston so I can imagine it being pretty big.

Really wonderful pictures mate, but isn't this the 'My City Photo' section... and isn't all those pictures taken by various people who didn't post their material themself?

And shouldn't you credit other people's work and link to them or the rights holder?

Outstanding shots and lots of interesting factoids about the city -- I don't think I've ever learned more about a place from a photo thread before. Thanks for the great tour!

Awesome pictures. One of the best Mexico City threads ever. I really feel myself proud of living in such a world class city.
