If you wish to share and do not have an intended room-mate, again, please let us know and we will try and accommodate you with another conference participant. Breakfasts are available in the hotel or more cheaply in one of the many restaurants within a couple of minutes walk. Transportation from the hotel to the Faculty of Science will be provided each morning with a return after the last lecture in the evening. Lunch tickets can be purchased at the time of registration. Otherwise, many restaurants may be found between 2 and 3 kilometers from the Faculty of Science.
Rain usually falls in brief periods in the afternoon.
During this season the pollution levels are usually quite low and shouldn't cause any problem. Geographically the city is located in a closed valley surrounded by volcanic peaks, the highest of these being Popocatepetl at 5452 metres and which is presently in low level eruption. The Aztec city of Tenochtitlan was founded in 1325 on an island in the shallow, partly saline Lake Texcoco, supposedly on the orders of the god Huitzilopochtli who, in legend, told the people to build their city where they saw an eagle devouring a serpent. Maybe the most famous building on the campus is the central library which is covered on all four sides by a mosaic of Juan O'Gorman. The registration fee is 95 US dollars .
