Changing from a metro line to another is covered by the fare of 5 pesos per person (so only a few cents of CHF/EUR/USD), while changing to Metrobús (6$) or Gondola (7$) isn't. They all use gates with the same prepaid card.

Looks like they secured it from falling apart in case of an earthquake.

I did ride my Mountainbike in an altitude like this (2200 m) before. On a mountain top!

I checked online for bus schedules and everything, but the line number does not show on the bus and the driver seemed to not even know it ;-) however, the general direction is right. Kind of.

Closed bus doors are overrated.
(Photo taken while the bus was stopped, but the doors would not shut during most of the ride).

The driver didn't need to check the speedometer - the needle as well as the glass covering it was long gone. So he could focus on his main duty, being DJ.

When in Mexico, try crickets, here on guacamole.
And, more mainstream, ask for "Agua del Día".

In case your city isn't loud enough from all the mopeds and Taco-sellers, have airplanes fly over every 2 minutes before landing.

The concrete reinforcement reaches from the foundation slab all the way up through the next higher ceiling and a bit further. This is more complicated to build, but helps to make the building earthquake resilient.

@serac On my list of "Civilization world wonders I still need to visit"
@simonbp
Which list of world wonders are you refering to? The one from the NewOpenWorld Foundation lists Chichén Itzá, but not Teotihuacán. However, it is a very impressive site indeed.
@serac As in the ones from the Civilization games
