It has always attached great importance to the construction of public transportation, and the scale and modernization of subway network are the highest in Latin America. The subway in Mexico City was built at 1969. Up to now, it has 12 lines and a low fare of 5 Mexican pesos (about 1.5 yuan RMB), which has become the main means of transportation for a large number of citizens in Mexico City, with an average daily passenger flow of about 5 million.
