After eleven years of revolution, and once the political independence was achieved, Mexico remained in the middle of a difficult situation of economic crisis and transformation, social adjustments, generalized violence and a very expensive militarization. The image of that convulsed country was the one the travelers found on their visit to Mexico City during the first decades of independence, and the one they discussed in their letters and diaries, astonished and marveled by the greatness and the specificities of such a different urban world.
