Dating back to our origins, civilizations of Mesoamerica came together in synthesis with the western world to become intertwined and give
birth to our singular personality and our way with the world.
Dazzling examples of this are our colonial architecture, our religious syncretism, traditional medicine, our fascinating cuisine, Mexican contemporary painting, the design of our cities, and our booming transnational companies.
Today, Mexico openly participates in an increasingly connected world.
And all can clearly see our vocation in playing a leading role in the
globalized world of the 21st century.
We are this bridge of encounters for tradition and modernity, for the
past and the future, and to link what we have inherited with what we
will create.
We are a bridge of encounters that is unique for international trade
exchange, thanks to the fact that we have the highest number of free
trade agreements of any nation on the panet.
We are a bridge of encounters for tourists and visitors from all over
the world to whom we offer the broadest and most attractive range of
options for recreation, fun, and culture.
We are a bridge of encounters for business initiatives and investment
because here, people find fertile soil where they can watch their
efforts and projects grow.
Mexico is a bridge of encounters for you and for me so that together, we
may give life and substance to the values that will mark the 21st
century.
Mexico, today, is a bridge of encounters for the communities of the
world.
Vicente Fox
President of Mexico
