WELCOME

The Organizing Committee of the Mexican Federation of Bodybuilding & Fitness extends a warm

welcome to all IFBB National Federations to participate in the “IFBB World Amateur Women´s

Bodybuilding, Fitness & Body Fitness and Men´s Fitness Championships” in Tlalnepantla County, State

of México, México, September 30 – October 4, 2010.

LOCATION

Tlalnepantla de Baz is a city and a municipality of the State of Mexico in the north of Mexico City

(Ciudad de Mexico). Tlalnepantla comes from the Náhuatl words tlalli (land) and nepantla (middle) to

mean the middle land. The city was known in prior times as Tlalnepantla de Galeana and Tlalnepantla de

Comonfort, to honor Hermenegildo Galeana and Ignacio Comonfort, respectively. The current addition of

Baz comes from the last name of Gustavo Baz Prada, an important politician and soldier of Emiliano

Zapata’s army during the Mexican Revolution. After the Revolution, Baz Prada became Governor of the

State of Mexico and President of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). It is located

in the northeastern part of the State of Mexico, in the Valley of Mexico north of Mexico City proper.

History

Around the 11th century, a people called the Amaquemecan (after whom the municipality of Amecameca

is named), migrated to this area following their leader Xolotl to look for a better climate and more food to

sustain themselves. This same Xolotl founded the Tenayuca Oztopolco chiefdom and made the first

census ever in the Americas. The Acolhuas, Tepanecas and Otomis were already established in this land

so alliances were made. Despite of this, the region eventually was conquered and made a tributary of the

Aztec empire. After the Spanish Conquest, the area was evangelized by the Franciscans. The founding of

modern Tlalnepantla was the result of a dispute between the towns of Tenayuca and Teocalhueyacan as to

which should be the site of Franciscan monastery and religious center for the area. The result was to place

the monastery at the midpoint between these two towns, and hence the name (middle land). This

monastery, named Corpus Christi was built in 1550. After independence, Tlalnepantla was originally part

of Mexico City, but in 1825, it was recognized as a district of the State of Mexico. During the Presidency

of Porfirio Díaz Mori, Tlalnepantla began industrial development, and in the 1950s underwent a

demographic explosion after being declared a city in 1948.[1] The population as of the 2005 INEGI census

was 674,417 people, representing over 98.6% of municipal population.

Infrastructure

Tlalnepantla is a big modern city with an important mall (Mundo E) and hotels, like Crown Plaza

Lancaster, Fiesta Inn. Tlalnepantla offers different options for entertainment and food; Punta Recoleta

Restaurant (Argentinian food), Boca del Rio (Mexican food restaurant), Real de Catorce (Show and

Mexican food restaurant), La Antigua (Mexican food restaurant).

The most important avenues and boulevards in Tlalnepantla City are:

 Gustavo Baz Ave.

 Mario Colin Ave.

 Adolfo Lopez Mateos Blvd.

 Presidente Juarez Ave.

As well as the Periférico and the Mexico-Querétaro Freeway with 12 lanes in Tlalnepantla. (This is a

section of Mexican Federal Highway 57, the Pan-American Highway). Tlalnepantla is well served by the

local pesero, intercity bus network and the suburban train.

Notable Sites

Tenayuca pyramid

The church and monastery of Corpus Christi was built by both Mexicas and Otomis of pink and gray

stone. The side gate, called the Porciúncula, shows clearly the influence of both these peoples. In 1963,

the church gain cathedral status. The aqueduct that extends from Tlalnepantla to Villa de Guadalupe as

well as the Caja Del Agua is works that dates from the colonial period. The Hacienda of Santa Mónica

and the Hacienda de Enmedio are well-preserved. The Centro Cultural Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz has a

collection of 130 pictures of Tlalnepantla from the end of the XIX century to 1960 as well as other

historical objects.

Pyramid at Santa Cecilia Acatitlán

Two notable pyramids lies in the municipality’s limits: Tenayuca and Santa Cecilia Acatitlan. The

pyramid at Tenayuca is a smaller version of the Mayor Temple, the Aztecs built in Tenochtitlan. It has

dual staircases on the west side, each leading to two temples, at the top of the pyramid. One was dedicated

to Tlaloc and the other to Huitzilopochtli. Serpent scupltures surround the pyramid on three sides and are

possibly of pre Aztec origin. A small museum on the grounds holds artifacts diagrams and models of the

site and the history that surrounds it. Another, smaller pyramid is at Santa Cecilia Acatitlan, just north of

4

Tenayuca. This one was rebuilt as the original was destroyed and some of it blocks were used to build the

Santa Cecelia Parish church that is next to it. This pyramid has one staircase one temple atop. On the

plaza is the Hurtado Museum, which houses a small collection of pre Hispanic sculpture.

The municipality

Tlalnepantla de Baz city in State of Mexico on northern tips of Mexico City. The city and the

municipality are nearly co-extensive, with the city of Tlalnepantla having governing jurisdiction over only

other communities: Ejido San Pedro Xalostoc (El Cuervo). Less than 2% of the municipality’s population

is located outside of the city proper.[2]

The municipality was created in 1978 with the name of Tlalnepantla de Baz to honor Dr. Gustavo Baz

Prada (1894–1987) who was a Zapatista, governor of the State of Mexico and dean of the National

Autonomous University of Mexico. The municipality is made of two areas which are not continuous (the

Poniente area and the Oriente, which are divided by the mexico city), the only municipality constructed

this way in the state. The total municipal area is 83.48 km².[1] The eastern side borders Ecatepec de

Morelos city, and the western side shares its southern border with Naucalpan de Juarez city. The three

most important rivers in the municipality are:

 Río de los Remedios

 Río San Javier

 Río Tlalnepantla

The Sierra de Monte Alto is in the city itself but other significant elevations in the municipality including:

Cerro Del Tenayo, Cerro Grande and Cerro de la Cruz. Significant locations within the municipality

include the communities of San Jerónimo Tepetlacalco, Xocoyahualco, San Pablo Xalpa, San Bartolo

Tenayuca, San Andrés Atenco, San Pablo Barrientos and San Juan Ixhuatepec.

The archaeological zones of Tenayuca and Santa Cecilia Acatitlan are located here as well, each of which

has a museum. The pyramid at Tenayuca served as the model of the Templo Mayor in Tenochtitlan (now

Mexico City).
