TRAVEL
TO MEXICO
Diverse cultural influences have shaped Mexican
civilization. Sophisticated pre-Hispanic native cultures such
as the Olmecs of the Gulf coast with their compelling stone sculpture,
the Teotihuacan muralists, the artistic Mayans militaristic Toltecs
and the Aztecs left magnificent legacies of art and architecture.
The birth of modern Mexico began with the arrival of the Spanish
Conquistadors in the early 16th century.
