What is special about tenochtitlan?

Answer 1

Much like Venice Italy, Tenochtitlan was a city on top of water (Lake Texcoco to be exact). surrounding it, there were other small man-made islands used for farming called "Chinampas". This city also had a water system and a Dam. All of this made possible without the use of metal or animals that are used to carry stuff (such as horses and bulls).

Answer 2

One of the most unique features about Tenochtitlan was that it was built on a lake. Not only that, but around the city, the Aztecs made floating gardens, called Chinampas, that allowed them to grow and maintain their own food.

Answer 3

It was the capital city for the Aztecs, and the interesting part is that the island was man made and is now modern day Mexico City.

Answer 4

I think that the streets were unusual because they were built on top of water. Like, they ran from the island to the main land.

Answer 5

I am looking for the same thing. I found only one but you probobly know this but it was built in the middle of a lake.
