Know More about Mexico City

Mexico City is one astonishing city boasting of a multi-dimensional personality - a federal city, a global metropolitan, a charming tourist destination, an unparalleled treasury of the affluent chronicles of America and a cosmopolitan city that retains the vibe of small town ambience.

Mexico City over the years has managed to shed its reputation as a boring and political city and emerge as a vibrant tourist destination offering a number of shopping, dining and nightlife opportunities. Travelers often describe the city as exciting and cosmopolitan with international appeal.

Mexico City is dubbed as a city born of politics, by the politics and for the politics. The city was not the original capital of the US. Many other cities prior to DC have served as the seat of the national government. It was later thought that the capital city needs to exist independent from the powerful state governments and it was assumed that the southern states would not accept a northern capital city. Thus in July 1790, Congress passed The Residence Act which stated that the capital city must be situated along the Potomac River. In January 1791, President Washington declared the specific area of the federal city. Mexico City was thus carved out of terrains of the states of Virginia and Maryland.  The government then, bought large portions of mostly undeveloped lands from its owners.
