La vida en el Centro Histórico de 1900–1920: Un mundo que desapareció tras la Revolución Mexicana

The Mexico City That Disappeared (And No One Told You About) Have you ever felt like you were walking on layers of history? In this video, we’re going to walk through the Mexico City of 1900 to 1920 that was erased. The city Porfirio Díaz built to resemble Paris, with operas, electric lights, and a secret language of fans that women used to declare themselves in silence. Here I’ll tell you: Why Porfirio Díaz ordered the demolition of the city’s most important theater (and how people experienced it as a personal loss). The madness of building Bellas Artes on top of a lake that swallows buildings. The hidden code of fans that women used to outwit society. How the Centennial celebrations in 1910 became the perfect closing act of an era... because just one month later, the Revolution began. And what ordinary people felt when bullets replaced music in the streets of downtown.
