Petlacalco The Historic Center of Mexico City is possessed of a vast historical and cultural heritage. Through nearly seven years, the indigenous society, English and mestizo has shaped and defined from the living and housing sites. Explore
neighborhoods of the Historical Center, is to enter into the review of the history of social geography that gave rise to the city of Mexico from their traditional neighborhoods.
A neighborhood is a place where its inhabitants are built and are identified either from a religious reference, cultural, economic or social. It was for this that before the reconfiguration of the city by the English, were taken into neighborhoods that supported the social cohesion of the Mexica.
History, culture, architecture, art, traditions, cuisine, legends, characters, are just some of the aspects that are part of the richness of our neighborhoods, from the founding until the present.
According to oral tradition of the Mexica, were seven groups that came out of the mythical Aztlan, or such Chicomostoc rather than groups that pilgrimage for centuries to finally settle on a phased basis in the watershed of Mexico.
The Mexica, last to arrive, gave rise to the Mexico City-Tenochtitllan in 1325 with the establishment of four districts and a major ceremonial center. By 1337 a rebel group settled in the north of the lakes and established Mexico-Tlatelolco.
From then until the sixteenth century, these neighborhoods sustained urban settings, political, economic, social and religious society Tenochtitlan and Tlatelolco, the same that would be affected but not completely eliminated by the English settlement from conquest.
Once
consummate the English conquest, the Mexica Main Temple was replaced in the sixteenth century by English buildings of greater symbolic importance.
Le surrounded the new English city those settlements which have been identified since the founding of Tenochtitlan, neighborhoods with a great tradition that would be merged into a pagan-Christian nomenclature, and so Cuepopan was given to the protection of the Virgin Mary; Moyotla , Saint John, Zoquiapan Atzacoalco St. Paul and St. Sebastian.
To this is added Tlatelolco, which it considers to be the current perimeter of the historic center and as a district originally was vital importance in the historical development of Mexican society. Since then many other neighborhoods would come today, in the XXI century continue to show roots and social cohesion of a multicultural society and changing.
