No. Mexico City is within a valley, but it is not affected by any kind of rain-shadow effect.
Yes, mountains to the northwest of Beijing, such as the Taihang Mountains, create a rain shadow effect by blocking moisture-laden air masses from reaching the city. As a result, Beijing experiences less precipitation and drier conditions compared to areas on the windward side of the mountains.

the pollution in the air
In Mexico City, the surrounding mountains contribute to a unique topography that influences the city's climate and air quality. The mountains create a natural basin, which can trap pollution and smog, leading to poorer air conditions, especially in winter. Additionally, the elevation of the city, combined with the mountains, results in a cooler climate compared to other regions at lower altitudes. This geographical setting also provides scenic views and recreational opportunities for residents and visitors alike.
