Founded by Spanish conquistadors on the ruins of Tenochtitlan, Mexico City is the capital of Mexico, the second-largest city in the world, and one of the most polluted. This work takes a look at this megacity, from its mestizo heritage, a blend of native and Spanish influences, to its phenomenal economic growth.
