Castillo de Chapultepec.
Vista aérea de Cuidad de MEXICO, y su Castillo de Chapultepec.
Vista añeja desde el Cielo y alrrededor de la Ciudad.
This beautiful Castle in the middle of Chapultepec Park was one of my favorite sights in Mexico City.
We didn’t make it on time before the castle closed the first time we went, but I refused to leave Mexico without seeing inside this beautiful landmark. Definitely worth it!
5 AWESOME FACTS ABOUT CASTILLO DE CHAPULTEPEC:
1. It was a FILM LOCATION for the Academy Award-nominated movie William Shakespeare's ROMEO + JULIET (1996) starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes. Many views of the castle as the CAPULET MANSION can be seen throughout the film.
2. It has a HEIGHT OF 2,325 METERS (7,628 feet) above sea level.
3. The site of the hill was a SACRED PLACE FOR AZTECS, and the buildings atop it have served several purposes during its history, including that of Military Academy, Imperial residence, Presidential home, observatory, and presently, the National Museum of History.
4. It is the only royal castle in North America that was actually used as the residence of a sovereign: the MEXICAN EMPEROR Maximilian I, and his consort/ wife EMPRESS Carlota, lived there during the Second Mexican Empire.
5. In the VIDEO GAME Ghost Recon (2006): Advanced Warfighter, a level existed in and around this castle.

Its name comes from the nahuatl language and means "Grasshopper´s Hill". Nevertheless it was until the empire of Maximiliano de Habsburgo in 1863 when it became official residence; and would be again occupied by the president Porfirio Diaz some years later. In several occasions it was used as a military school and it was there where one of the most memorable battles in Mexican history occurred. Happening around the castle on the 12 and 13 of September of 1847, the Battle of Chapultepec faced the Mexican army of General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna against the U.S. army of General Winfield Scott. The surrender of the defendants came with the final assault of the brigades of Generals Shields and Cadwalader and with the death, among many, of six Mexican cadets from the military school, whom later would be know as "Niños Heroes" (Children Heroes). The North American conquest of the Castle of Chapultepec allowed the occupation of the Mexican capital and forced the government to begin negotiations with the United States. Nowadays, the Castle of Chapultepec holds the National History Museum, while the official president?s residence was moved to a place called Los Pinos.

The tradition of Chapultepec Castle as a residence for Mexican rulers dates back to the 14th Century when Nezahualcoyotl, the King of Texcoco, ordered a palace to be built at the foot of the hill, together with certain hydraulic installations designed to take advantage of the natural springs which also occurred there. The proximity of the site to the adjacent lake facilitated the growth of massive cypress trees, some of which thrive here to this day.
Following the Spanish Conquest, Hernan Cortez took possession of Chapultepec as part of his spoils and it subsequently served as a hunting preserve for the Viceroy de Velasco. In 1530 it became a public park and the property of the local city council, and construction was initiated to rebuild the aqueduct needed to quench the thirst of the growing capital of New Spain.
A French invasion altered the landscape of Chapultepec as the construction of the Imperial Palace of Maximilian von Hapsburg and the layout of a majestic avenue to connect the Castle with Mexico City were initiated. Plans were drawn up in France to add a second floor to the principal facade of the main building, including the Fortress, and renovations were completed to convert the Castle into a regal residential palace.
The Golden Age of the Castle came, however, during the government of Porfirio Diaz. The General who, ironically, had liberated the city from the conservative forces of the Second Empire, managed to imbue Chapultepec with the ostentatious lifestyle that Maximilian and Carlotta had yearned for, and which included decorating its interior in extravagant European luxury. It was here that President Diaz had his noteworthy meeting with Creelman, the American journalist, which left the heavy ironwork doors ajar to the Revolutionary surge of 1910.
In 1944 the National History Museum was established in the Castle, and important documents and memorabilia covering Mexicoís history from the Conquest until the Revolutionary period can be seen here. The presidential chambers can be visited in the Fortress, and a magnificent panorama of Mexico City can be viewed from the terraces.

Chapultepec
Chapultepec, more commonly called the "Bosque de Chapultepec" (Chapultepec Forest) in Mexico City, is one of the largest city parks in the Western Hemisphere, measuring in total just over 686 hectares (1,695 acres). Centered on a rock formation called Chapultepec Hill, one of the park's main functions is to be an ecological space in the vast megalopolis. It is considered the first and most important of Mexico City's "lungs", with trees that replenish oxygen to the Valley of Mexico. The park area has been inhabited and held as special since the Pre-Columbian era, when it became a retreat for Aztec rulers. In the colonial period, Chapultepec Castle would be built here, eventually becoming the official residence of Mexican heads of state. It would remain such until 1940, when it was moved to another part of the park called Los Pinos. Today, the park is divided into three sections, with the first section being the oldest and most visited. This section contains most of the park's attractions including its zoo, the Museum of Anthropology, the Rufino Tamayo Museum, and more. It receives an estimated 15 million visitors per year. This prompted the need for major rehabilitation efforts which began in 2005 and ended in 2010.

Colonial period
In 1775 Viceroy Bernardo de Gálvez ordered the construction of a stately home for himself at the highest point of Chapultepec Hill. Francisco Bambitelli, Lieutenant Colonel of the Spanish Army and engineer, drew up the blueprint and began the construction on August 16 of the same year.

wn.com/Chapultepec Castle | Mexico City Vlog
This beautiful Castle in the middle of Chapultepec Park was one of my favorite sights in Mexico City.
We didn’t make it on time before the castle closed the first time we went, but I refused to leave Mexico without seeing inside this beautiful landmark. Definitely worth it!
5 AWESOME FACTS ABOUT CASTILLO DE CHAPULTEPEC:
1. It was a FILM LOCATION for the Academy Award-nominated movie William Shakespeare's ROMEO + JULIET (1996) starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes. Many views of the castle as the CAPULET MANSION can be seen throughout the film.
2. It has a HEIGHT OF 2,325 METERS (7,628 feet) above sea level.
3. The site of the hill was a SACRED PLACE FOR AZTECS, and the buildings atop it have served several purposes during its history, including that of Military Academy, Imperial residence, Presidential home, observatory, and presently, the National Museum of History.
4. It is the only royal castle in North America that was actually used as the residence of a sovereign: the MEXICAN EMPEROR Maximilian I, and his consort/ wife EMPRESS Carlota, lived there during the Second Mexican Empire.
5. In the VIDEO GAME Ghost Recon (2006): Advanced Warfighter, a level existed in and around this castle.

Its name comes from the nahuatl language and means "Grasshopper´s Hill". Nevertheless it was until the empire of Maximiliano de Habsburgo in 1863 when it became official residence; and would be again occupied by the president Porfirio Diaz some years later. In several occasions it was used as a military school and it was there where one of the most memorable battles in Mexican history occurred. Happening around the castle on the 12 and 13 of September of 1847, the Battle of Chapultepec faced the Mexican army of General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna against the U.S. army of General Winfield Scott. The surrender of the defendants came with the final assault of the brigades of Generals Shields and Cadwalader and with the death, among many, of six Mexican cadets from the military school, whom later would be know as "Niños Heroes" (Children Heroes). The North American conquest of the Castle of Chapultepec allowed the occupation of the Mexican capital and forced the government to begin negotiations with the United States. Nowadays, the Castle of Chapultepec holds the National History Museum, while the official president?s residence was moved to a place called Los Pinos.

The tradition of Chapultepec Castle as a residence for Mexican rulers dates back to the 14th Century when Nezahualcoyotl, the King of Texcoco, ordered a palace to be built at the foot of the hill, together with certain hydraulic installations designed to take advantage of the natural springs which also occurred there. The proximity of the site to the adjacent lake facilitated the growth of massive cypress trees, some of which thrive here to this day.
Following the Spanish Conquest, Hernan Cortez took possession of Chapultepec as part of his spoils and it subsequently served as a hunting preserve for the Viceroy de Velasco. In 1530 it became a public park and the property of the local city council, and construction was initiated to rebuild the aqueduct needed to quench the thirst of the growing capital of New Spain.
A French invasion altered the landscape of Chapultepec as the construction of the Imperial Palace of Maximilian von Hapsburg and the layout of a majestic avenue to connect the Castle with Mexico City were initiated. Plans were drawn up in France to add a second floor to the principal facade of the main building, including the Fortress, and renovations were completed to convert the Castle into a regal residential palace.
The Golden Age of the Castle came, however, during the government of Porfirio Diaz. The General who, ironically, had liberated the city from the conservative forces of the Second Empire, managed to imbue Chapultepec with the ostentatious lifestyle that Maximilian and Carlotta had yearned for, and which included decorating its interior in extravagant European luxury. It was here that President Diaz had his noteworthy meeting with Creelman, the American journalist, which left the heavy ironwork doors ajar to the Revolutionary surge of 1910.
In 1944 the National History Museum was established in the Castle, and important documents and memorabilia covering Mexicoís history from the Conquest until the Revolutionary period can be seen here. The presidential chambers can be visited in the Fortress, and a magnificent panorama of Mexico City can be viewed from the terraces.
