The Geographic Diversity of Mexico:
Yes, I realize these maps are not in the order I'm describing them. I am new to blogging and am just getting the hang of it. But the last map I'm showing here is the topography map of Mexico. Just as I was describing in my last paragraph regarding transportation across this rugged country, here you can visually seen just how mountainous Mexico really is. There are some tall mountains in this country. Honestly I would rather just fly to select destinations in Mexico, like Acapulco, or Cancun, rather than try to traverse this country on 2nd world roads. Of course I've never actually been to Mexico, so maybe the roads aren't as bad as I'm thinking. I hope these maps give anyone who cares to read a better idea of the geographical nature of Mexico.
Until next time,
Thanks for reading!
To start off, let's take a look at this beautiful
map of Mexico. The oranges, reds, and yellows depicted above show the various concentrations of population within Mexico. You can probably tell that a vast majority of the country's people live in the central area between Tampico (the coastal city on Mexico's eastern side), to the Pacific coast of Mexico just west of Guadalajara. Of course Mexico City has the absolute highest population in the country. If I'm not mistaken, I believe that Mexico City is in fact the largest and most densely populated city in the Western Hemisphere!
Going down to the next map we see what looks like a bunch of colorful veins going through country.
Here we can see various railroads, highways, and major population centers throughout the country. As long as it takes to travel across the United States in a car on our nice freeways, one could imagine how long it must take to drive across Mexico. Their roads appear to be very wind-y and across some very mountainous terrain.Yes, I realize these maps are not in the order I'm describing them.
