The capital of Mexico


Postcard
Mexico City, the capital of Mexico, is one of the largest metropolitan areas in the world with over 20 million inhabitants (including Mexico City Metropolitan Area).
 
In the background you see Popocatépetl volcano (local name: Popo), a still active volcano. Popo is just too predictable to be considered a properly dangerous volcano. It vents off all its gas rather than storing it up, waiting to explode.

Stamps
Two stamps part of a large set of stamps picturing “Mexico Creacion Popular” (folk art).
