Metro Villa de Cortés
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Metro Villa de Cortés is a station on Line 2 of the Mexico City Metro system. It is located in the Benito Juárez borough of Mexico City, directly south of the city centre on Calzada de Tlalpan. It is a surface station.
The station logo depicts a helmet of the type used by the Spanish conquerors (conquistadores) who, led by Hernán Cortés, invaded the Aztec empire in the 16th century. The name of this station comes from the area in which it is now located, which was known as the Villa de Cortés in colonial times.
Metro Villa de Cortés provides a transfer with trolleybus Line "M", which runs between this station and the Infonavit Iztacalco neighbourhood.
