MEXICO CITY IS INCREDIBLE!!

It's our 1st time in CDMX & we're realizing why many think Mexico City is one of the best cities in the world!

If you’re visiting Mexico City in 2019, you are in for a treat! In Centro Historico, the historic center of CDMX, you can find gorgeous colonial architecture, the 2nd largest town square in the world, an amazing cathedral, and Aztec ruins. There is no shortage of things to see and do and that’s only talking about 1 small area of Mexico City.
In today’s travel video, we travel to Mexico City’s historic center and from there, it’s just a few steps to the ruins that have been there for many hundreds of years. We thought it was so crazy that just feet away from the Zocalo (the city square), there are incredibly well-preserved ruins. In fact, the city was built on top of a large set of ruins just like the ones you can tour at Templo Mayor Museum.
After spending some time out in the sun around Zocalo, the ruins, Calle Madero, and Palacio de Bellas Artes, we had to go cool off with a drink and fuel up with some authentic Mexico City Street Food. Let me tell you, a tasty Gordita is exactly what the doctor ordered!
What’s next? Of the million and one things to do in Mexico City, we decided that we better visit the highly-recommended Castillo de Chapultepec (Chapultepec Castle) located in Latin America’s biggest park. What. A. View. Like a castle out of the movies, Chapultepec Castle is built on the top of a large hill with incredible views of the entire city. It’s worth it just for the sight line but as a bonus, you get to see some pretty gardens and a cool museum after the hike up the hill.
The adventures don’t end there, nor to our Mexico City videos. We will see you again shortly with another video from Mexico’s Capital, CDMX.

    Tangerine Travels next time you go to Mexico City, try to spend a Friday night at arena Mexico for the luchas. A night out in Plaza Garibaldi as well ( but stay in the square and don’t go to the bars.. they will say it’s free to get in and they will charge you for ‘entertainment’) besides the main square is where the real party is. Also, sooooo many places to go for a drink. Like the speak easy, hanky panky’ in zona rosa.

I was in shopping heaven! I *almost* had to buy another suitcase to get everything home. 🤣 Mexico City is absolutely fabulous!

Miami is all latin, manhattan is largely white, other parts of nyc are black or asain or latin, san diego is everything, ,but walk across the border and its 95% latin American.

    Castillo de Chapultepec was built by Viceroy Bernardo de Galvez in colonial Mexico in late 1770s and 1780s. The castle is the only one occupied by the royalty in the Americas, in this case by Empereor Maximilian of Habsburg between 1861 and 1865 (You saw his little "car" in the museum, hehe). The castle is famous also for being the last bastion of Mexican military resistance in the American invasion of 1847, you know, the one after the U.S took states like California, Arizona, New Mexico, to name a few (quite surprised you missed the murals and war monuments) the battle is remembered cause of some kids of the Colegio Militar died resisting the Americans (mostly a myth). The castle was mostly used by the Military academy, or as a observatory, and as residence of Mexican presidents since late 19th century until the 1930s. After that it has been the National Museum of history, which is beautiful as hell. And yep, the whole ruins of Templo Mayor are totally original, discovered in the late '70s under colonial buildings.

    "mostly a myth"... it's heavily romanticized, like calling them "kids" when they were just teenagers or young, (or Escutia's flag stunt, that one's totally a myth indeed), but it's not like it was a made up story, which is what sounds to me when I hear "mostly a myth". Also sadly many many many more of those "kids" defending it, ended up as POW and are unfairly heavily overlooked in history (specially Miramón, 15 y.o. when he fought in Chapultepec).

    @@jagwolf8079 Well, I agree with most of what you said. The word "kids" is a out of context, I just thought it was easier to explain the battle using it. Second, the battle and it's characters are a very important subject to be remembered, by referring to a "myth", I mostly wanted to stress the way only six cadets names are always associated with the battle in a type of "mythological" status, in prejudice of the superior number of Mexican defendants, including, of course, Miguel Miramón. I think maybe "myth" was another word I used wrong, lol.

    The treaty was signed giving the USA the territory by Santa ana, after Mexican army attacked and killed 16 soldiers, then the USA military in 2 steps conquered Mexico city. The stories written by the soldiers that could write home are surreal, the entire city of millions was empty. Santa Ana would have lost everything if not giving up the territory he could not control, Cherokee raids hit all the way in to Mexico anyways. Not saying all history leaves a great feeling when looked back at, I am glad Mexico is a country and not a Spanish territory, I have met some of the best people from Mexico. The 2 treaties Santa Ana signed netted him $25 million at that time and the country was torn from all the previous wars and needed money for an army to defend itself from the south.

    I used to live a few blocks away from Bellas Artes and the Zócalo back when I was in college. Seeing you walking down those streets brought back a lot of good memories. I don't know if smeone already mentioned it but the reason why the buildings at the Historical Center are leaning is not the earthquakes, not entirely. All that area used to be a lake and the Aztecs built the city on top of artificial islands, turning part of the lake into channels, similar to Venice or Amsterdam. Over time, as the city grew, the lake started drying out. But the ground under the city is still muddy and unstable and since the buildings are heavy and old, they started sinking. And they don't sink evenly, so they lean. You can feel it if you go inside some of those buildings.

    After the great Tenochtitlan was conquered by the Spanish exploration army on August 13th 1521, one of the first thing they do was demolishing many of Aztec’s major buildings as the Templo Mayor, the biggest and most important ceremonial building ( expanded al most 7 times to make it bigger), and used many of the materials to build the first version of the cathedral (It took more than 400 years to get finished, that’s the reason because it have many architectural styles, each major constructor had his own vision about it), then was constructed with different stones and materials of places near the New Spain. The Templo Mayor Museum, was made by Pedro Ramirez Vazquez, one of the most important Architects that Mexico had in its history, the museum have an interesting form similar to the snail shell with labyrinthine roads to make sure each part of the museum could be visited without lose any exposure. Ramirez Vazquez was also the architect behind the National Anthropology Museum, the new Basílica de Guadalupe, the Aztec stadium, the historic center remodulation, programmed and directed the XIX Olympic Games in Mexico City. The Castillo de Chapultepec was built to be the virrey’s Mascaró summer house around mid 1700, then was converted in the military college in 1833. In 1864 was taken by the emperors Maximiliano and Carlota and the name was changed in to Castillo de Miravalle. After the civil war(Mexican revolution) ended in 1922 when Mexico became a democratic country, the Castillo became the presidential home, more than 10 presidents and their families lived there until 1939, when the president Cardenas decided moved in to los pinos estate. Recently our new president change the presidential home in to the Palacio Nacional, next to the zócalo square. Cheers guys I really enjoy watching your videos

    Hi. I'm very glad you're finally here in Mexico City. Templo Mayor has some degree of restoration to preserve the structures and original colors, but no reconstruction at all. It was "discovered" in 1978, and back then it was decided to preserve the archeological ruin conditions.

    @2:03 fun fact: the Zócalo plaza used to be laid out much like the plaza of all Mexican towns with gardens and everything. Curiously it never had a Quisco in the middle. However this was dismantled after the revolution and was left as a plain open area for events. The name zocalo means base, and it refers to the base of a statue of the Spanish king that used to be in the plaza. After independence the statue was knocked down and only the base (zócalo) of the statue remained for many years. Eventually people just started referring to the entire plaza as "El Zócalo."

If you're interested in learning yet more about other issues in Mexico, check out 'La Casa de los Amigos' near Revolution Square. And drink a few 'atolés' for me (a morning drink), and eat a few morning tamales and then eat a few evening tamales for me too. The street food is beyond amazing, along with the 'tianguis' food.

    I am glad you went to Mexico City. You are correct that Mexico’s capital is built on top of another city. It was built on top of the Aztec capital. What you might not know is that Mexico City used to be mostly a lake and many buildings are sinking and that is why they are sinking. Castillo de Chapultepec was Maximillian’s castle. He was the first (and only) emperor of Mexico. It is also where the United States invaded Mexico and where the ninos heroes died. El Camino Real was built in the 60s to help host dignitaries for the 1968 olympics. Gorditas by the way are not from Mexico City, they are from Guadalajara, but there is lots of other food that is chilango like tortas(al cubano is my favorite), tacos al pastor, and chilaquiles.

    Omg! You found my favorite quesadilla place! The chicharron quesadillas are killer! I’ve wondered what the gorditas are like, but haven’t tried them yet. Maybe next visit! I agree about the views from Castillo Chapultepec- just amazing. I’ve been three times now, and it just gets better. It’s my understanding that Templo Mayor was razed by the Spanish, and the stones were used to construct the cathedral and other buildings. Things are at wonky angles not just from earthquakes, but because the city was built on a lakebed. Tomorrow is my bus back home to Mazatlán. It’s been a fun month here ... glad you enjoyed it too! Btw - you can see a whole lot more in a lot less time by using the metro! And it’s only 5 pesos each time! Just saying!

    The Cathedral and the Bellas Artes Palace are 2 of the most beautiful buildings in mexico city, but also there are 3 streets that connect them, one is "Francisco I. Madero" Avenue, the other 2 are "5 de Mayo" Avenue and Tacuba Street, and all along these streets you can find beautiful buildings like the Latinoamerican Tower, the House of Tiles, the Postal Palace, the MUNAL museum, the Cafe Tacuba, and many many others. And also, right next to the cathedral, there is the Templo Mayor which are aztec ruins, so in that zone of downtown or "centro historico" you can quickly see pre-colonial mexico, colonial mexico, and modern mexico in just 1 day, or a few days if you enter every important building, because they are beautiful inside as well, so it takes time to explore them inside.

Also, your friend forgot, or didn't know about the most interesting facts about castillo de Chapultepec, i suggest you google it, its a very long story jaja
