Once upon a time in Tenotchitlan

In February 2012, I travelled to Tenotchitlan (Mexico city) with a friend for a holiday. One Friday afternoon we journeyed into the City square by train and witnessed a group of Aztec people performing traditional dancers.The Aztecs/Mexicas are native American people who dominated northern Mexico at the time of the Spanish conquest led by Hernan Cortes in the early 16th century. According to their own legends, they originated from a place called Aztlan, somewhere in north or northwest Mexico.  I watched in admiration as I enjoyed the beauty of there cultural dance.
