Mexico tour organiser 1 - All programs from organiser 1 Contact this Organiser Country Information North-America ... Mexico Mexico's historical attractions - from the ancient ruins of the Olmecs, Maya, and Aztec, to the train routes used by the brash and legendary Pancho Villa - rank second only to the beaches of Cancun - and Alcapulco as the prime reason people come. The reason for this is simple: the tale of Mexico's past, accompanied by an overwhelming amount of physical remains, is as romantic, blood-curling, dramatic, and complex as it gets. None of Mexico's pre-Columbian civilizations is more storied, however, than the Aztecs. Though it is arguable that other civilizations in Mexico achieved greater artistic and scientific feats, none advanced as quickly or ruled as much territory. Prior to the 15th century, the Aztecs were a marginal tribe living on the edge of Lake Texcoco, the site of present day Mexico City. By 1473, after subjugating neighboring tribes, they ruled the largest empire Mexico had ever seen. Their capital of Tenochtitlan, set in the lake, was a picturesque city of pyramids, mile-long floating roads, aquaducts, animated marketplaces, and one hundred thousand residents. Leading a highly codified government was an all-powerful emperor who exacted taxes from the conquered and distributed land to his people, especially the warriors. When the Spanish adventurer Hernan Cortez arrived in 1519, the rich city was a vision perfectly meshed to his thirst for conquest.

CULTURE
The people of Mexico are generally a warm and gracious population. Most Mexicans today are descendants from the original Indians that inhabited the area, or a combination of Indian and Spanish lines from the Europeans that settled in the area after the 16th century. In some areas of southern Mexico the pure Indian blood is still very dominant, and these cultures have changed little over the centuries. The influence of Old Spain is prevalent in many parts of today's Mexico. In addition to Spanish race being a dominant character in the looks and heritage of the people, the Spanish language is the national language of Mexico. Christianity was brought to the local people in the 16th century by the Spanish, and dominates the religious signature of the country today. Even the basic design of most of Mexico's towns, with a central plaza and adjacent church, came from the design of many of the older cities in Spain. The Mexican people are proud of their country and it's history, which has been quite tumultuous, to say the least. However they are a hard working people of strong character, and hold a high value for children, elders and the family unit. This may seem inconsistent with the "macho" image sometimes portrayed of Mexican men, but the macho image is set on a foundation of high respect for family, friends and other human beings.

MEXICO - CULTURE - ANCIENT CULTURES
Ancient Mexico was inhabited by a series of Indian peoples, some of whom developed amazingly advanced and complex civilizations. These cultures flourished in a region we now call Mesoamerica, which includes the Central Plateau and spreads south to Central America. One of the earliest civilizations (1200 - 100 B.C.) was that of the Olmecs, known today as the "mother culture" of Mexico. The Olmecs grew corn, crushed the cacao bean to make a cocoa-like drink, and wove cotton into cloth. But they are most noted for carving giant stone heads that weighed many tons. If you visit Mexico, you can view one of these remarkable sculptures at the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City. Another major civilization in Mexico was that of the Maya of the Yucatan (1500 B.C. - A.D. 900), perhaps the most brilliant of all the ancient peoples of Mesoamerica. Like the Olmecs, the Maya grew corn, which they made into little flat cornmeal cakes that later came to be called tortillas. The Maya were superb architects, mathematicians, and astronomers. Their accomplishments included an accurate calendar, domed observatories, and a system of hieroglyphic writing that the Aztecs later adopted for their own. In addition, these talented people built cities such as Uxmal, Palenque and Chichen Itza. But the fantastic Maya history ends in a great mystery. Why did the Maya abandon their cities around A.D. 900, leaving their civilization to practically disappear?

MEXICO

Mexico is located in the northern region of the American continent between the Gulf of Mexico on the east and the Pacific Ocean on the west. It is bordered by the United States on the north and by Guatemala and Belize on the south. Mexico's land area extends 1,964,375 sq km, which is divided into six tourist regions.

Mexico Culture At A Glance
The Mexico culture is perhaps one of the most defining elements of this country. Like many other countries in Central America the culture is a mixture of Spanish culture as well as ancient traditions from those that lived here before the Spanish arrived. The people in Mexico are proud of their culture, something that will be obvious to you wherever you go. The most important elements of the culture are family and religion. Socializing, hard work and respectfulness define the way of life here. While many believe that the country is rural and undeveloped, this is not the case at all. There are many large cities that are similar to those found in the United States or Europe in terms of business, economy, even the style of buildings. About 75 percent of people in Mexico live in cities and towns like this. Some of the largest of those cities include Mexico City, Estado de Mexico, Baja California, Guadalajara, and Netzahualcoyotl. Religion plays a significant role in life in the Mexico culture. The country is about 95 percent Roman Catholic (this makes it the second largest Catholic nation after the largest, Brazil). Other religions exist too, but in much smaller numbers. Another area that you will see Mexico culture come to life is in their art work. A walk through town will allow you to see beautiful painted murals as well as sculptures adorning the surroundings. Folk art is the best name for this lively, colorful form of expression. Clothing and textiles are another form of art here. Beautiful rugs, baskets and cotton based garments are filled with bright colors and patterns.

The ethnic and regional diversity, as well as the socioeconomic divisions within the population make Mexico a truly culturally heterogeneous country. Among rural people, there are strong regional affinities and allegiances, often referred to as patria chica ("small homeland") that helps to perpetuate cultural diversity. The large number of extant Indian languages and customs, especially in the south, also accentuate cultural differences. In an attempt to unite the nation culturally by identifying a uniquely Mexican culture, the government has vigorously supported indigenous folk arts and crafts as well as the European-inspired classical arts. In fact, since the 1930s, indigenismo, or pride in the Indian heritage, has been a major unifying theme of the country. Many Mexican writers and artists have received worldwide acclaim for their creativity and innovativeness. Within their work, both folk and classical tradition has been quite strong. The country's best-known writers have gained their reputations by dealing with questions of universal significance, as did Samuel Ramos, whose philosophical speculations on man and culture in Mexico influenced post-1945 writers in several genres. The prolific critic and cultural analyst Octavio Paz is considered to be the foremost poet of Latin America. The novels of Carlos Fuentes are honored throughout the world, Gustavo Sainz is a leader in Spanish-language literature, and Juan José Arreola's fantasies are universally admired. Among dramatists, Rodolfo Usigli has been extremely influential, while Luisa Josefina Hernández and Emilio Carballido have also made significant contributions.

The Culture of Mexico
Clothing: While most Mexicans these days prefer the common clothes we see throughout the Western world, many Mexicans maintain the use of a variety of traditional clothes and textiles, especially in the indigenous communities found throughout the country. Some of the most beautiful examples of indigenous clothing can be found in the states of Oaxaca and Chiapas. The women of these communities often use traditional woven blouses, shawls, and skirts, which are made on a back strap loom. The huipil is a common form of traditional clothing for women from these areas. Huipils are blouses made from cotton or wool and are decorated with brilliant colors and complex designs. Many of the designs found on these garments date from pre-Hispanic times and have religious significance.
