The capital of Mexico is not only a large city, one of the most important financial centers of North America.
Mexico City is also a populated area that is distinguished by its enormous size.
The city stretches for 200 kilometers. This is a record figure.
What is known about Mexico City
More than 9 million people live within the capital of Mexico.
If you count the entire agglomeration, the population becomes enormous - 21 million people.
The city has an unofficial title - "Open-air Museum".
And this “title” was received by the settlement quite deservedly: on the territory of Mexico City there are more than a hundred museums, as well as a huge number of architectural and archaeological monuments.
The city stretches for two hundred kilometers in width.
Thanks to this indicator, the capital of Mexico is recognized as the longest city on the planet.
Cities such as Sochi, Krivoy Rog, Beijing, Tokyo and New York are also quite large, but are clearly inferior to Mexico City.
