Visit places from Mexico-Tenochtitlan in 1510, the viceregal City of Palaces in 1710, and the Capital of the Independent Mexico in 1910.

Explore pre-Hispanic temples, navigate through the chinampas, enter the homes, walk through the markets; sail along the viceregal canals, stroll through the cloisters, tour the convents; experience Porfirian modernity, walk through gardens lit by electric light, ride the streetcars—experiences that have shaped the identity of Mexico City.

The project covers an area of 1 degree by 1 degree, spanning the coordinates 19N to 20N and -99.5W to -98.5, which covers the entire area of Mexico City and metropolitan area, and the 5 ancient lakes as well.
