No video yet... however I have some pics that I took this week....
This is the beauiful museum of Bellas Artes. This museum is few blocks away from Zocalo (Mexico City Downtown.) Bellas Artes represents the boom of the "Porfiriato" (Period in wich president Porfirio Diaz tried to introduce international culture in Mexico) This museum offers great musical and other fine arts shows for free every Sunday!
This is a Mercado or a "Plaza" (like local people call it), it's basically mexican Wal-Mart that opens once a week in the middle of the street; here you can find many kinds of fresh vegetables and fruits of the season. YUMMY!
Metro, one of the cheapest, fastest and better ways to go across the city; for only two amercian cents you can go from North to South, and East to West. Basically Everywhere! (This picture was taken near the station "Balderas" where a physco dude killed three persons)
President, Felipe Calderon, has been working on making Mexico look prettier by builing many modern-looking builings, bridges, and parks. This bridge is located at the airport and it connects from a building to another!
Like every city in the world, the old part of the city is always present. On the other side of Bellas Artes, this old convent invites turistfrom all around the world to come inside and look at one of the oldest Jesus Christ statues from Mexico City.

Torre Latino is located in Mexico City's downtown, it has 45 stories, with a height of 183 meters! Thats like 597ft! This Builiding was the first mexican skyscraper! Yoy can pay $4 american dollars to go to the top and have an amazing view of Mexico City!
