Best Answer

Because the valley is surrounded by mountains, water did not flow out to the ocean. As a result it had many interconnected lakes in the times of the Aztecs (now mostly drained). In their capital city, built on an island, they raised food crops on artifial islands built of plants and mud. They also had an aquaduct that carried fresh water for irrigation from springs a few miles away.
