DISCOVER MEXICO
Hola,
Mexico! We just can't decide what we love most about you....your
light sandy beaches, turquoise waters, delectable cuisine or
unbeatable nightlife. Maybe what we love most is how a day can
drift away with the tide while we sip margaritas and sprawl
out with a contented sigh on one of your lovely beaches. Not
much can compete with a relaxing vacation at a posh beach resort
in Mexico....
And
Mexico is not just for leisure anymore. With business incentive
travel programs and the country's proximity to America's southwest,
it's an ideal location for work. Cities like Cancun and Mexico
City have more than enough meeting space and hotel rooms to
host business gatherings of all types and sizes.
We
can't forget the culture of Mexico, either. From rugged border
towns to colonial cities founded on the ruins of former Mayan
settlements, you can discover the history in every area of Mexico.

Historical
Note: The
Aztec island settlement, known as Tenochtitlán, soon grew from
a small village of huts into a large city of adobe houses and
stone temples. It became the Aztec capital, serving as the center
for Aztec trade and military activity throughout the region.
It is estimated that at the time of the Spanish invasion in
the early 1500s, the city was one of the largest in the world
and supported a population of about 200,000 people. |
