Description
Mexico-City is the Endless Town - nobody knows the number of Inhabitants. A town with a lot of faces, colorful, loud, full of life, a place that never sleeps.
Around 1325 the Aztecs followed the advice of their God Huitzliopochtly to establish a town, where they found an eagle sitting on a cactus and eats a snake. It was an island in the Texcoco Lake.
They created a great culture in their rich state.
Only their fate in an old God, Quetzalcoatl, with blond hair and blue eyes, who had left them by ship over sea and promised to return, gave the Spanish Conquista under Hernan Cortes (blond with blue eyes, coming by ship) the possibility to be Welcomed by the Aztecs and fate took its course............
