• You can get to the festival called “The flower more beautiful”.

• There are many restaurants with mexican food. • You can see girls are dancing, also you can go to the

trajineras. • In this festival there are activities for all the family.•

The transport is very cheap and easy.

.

Transport in my country • In Mexico City, many people go to work by metro, also by bus. • The metro is very cheap and punctual. This transport is more faster

than the buses. •

In Mexico City, some people are taking the taxi these days. It is efficient if you don’t know the places but the taxis are sometimes expensive. Many people travel by car.

• The cars are very comfortable but is difficult to find a parking place. • People are often using bikes in parks or when them are going to go

at supermarket. •

Many people travel between cities by trains or by aeroplane. • The train is faster and punctual. It takes about  four hours to get

from D.F.  to Puebla. • The aeroplanes are confortables but them are a little dangerous.
