15. Turisti e Animali: come rispettare la fauna?

La Ciudad de México puede visitarse en cualquier estación, aún en invierno ofrece la misma vitalidad que en pleno verano, que es, por cierto, cuando suele llover un más.

Si vienes en primavera (entre marzo y mayo), o en otoño (de septiembre a noviembre) puedes evitar los extremos del frío y la lluvia, aunque mayo suele ser el mes más caluroso.

Durante los meses de invierno, de diciembre a febrero, las temperaturas pueden llegar a ser bastante bajas, sobre todo por las noches y la madrugada. Durante el verano, puedes encontrar fuertes lluvias, por lo general tienen una duración máxima de un par de horas, lo cual suele ocasionar problemas de drenaje e inundaciones menores y por lo tanto podrías llegar a pasar mucho más tiempo atascado en el tráfico.

La primavera y el otoño suelen ser muy agradables, con tardes cálidas y noches frescas. Con un sombrero y un buen bloqueador solar podrás sentirte protegido, ya que los rayos del sol pueden ser intensos en casi cualquier época del año.

El Festival Iberoamericano de Cultura Musical Vive Latino se celebra a mediados de marzo en el Foro Sol y ofrece una variada programación de grupos musicales nacionales e internacionales de distintos géneros. 
EL Festival del Centro Histórico tiene lugar a principios de abril e incluye bailes, música, artes visuales, opera, teatro e historia en muchos sitios de importancia histórica.
El Equinoccio de Primavera se celebra anualmente en Teotihuacán.
Semana Santa y Pascua: la ciudad prácticamente se encuentra vacía durante estas dos semanas, ya que la mayoría de las universidades programan vacaciones similares al spring break. En estos días el tráfico y las idas en metro, u otro tipo de transporte público, suelen ser mucho más tranquilas.

If you thought social media was just a place for viral dances and cat photos, think again.

Popular influencers on apps like TikTok and YouTube have been boosting book sales with their videos.

And many are watched by millions.

The BookTok community on TikTok has been influential in encouraging users — who are often young people — to buy real books in bookshops.

But a survey from 2022 found that YouTube is actually the most popular place for young people to discover new books on social media.

The survey was done in November 2022 by Nielsen Book Data. It found that in the UK, 34% of people aged between 14 and 25 used YouTube — which is known for its BookTube community — for their book ideas.

TikTok was used by 32%, and 27% went to Instagram to find out about new books.

Some reports in recent years have said that young people are reading less than ever. But according to The Guardian, people in the 14 to 25 age group bought around 61 million books in the UK in 2022.

This was 18% of all books bought.

And it's not just social media where they're finding reading recommendations.

The most common way to discover new books is by talking to friends. Forty-one percent said they do this, while 35% find out about their books by visiting bookshops.

The survey also reported that fantasy action and fantasy adventure stories are the most popular among young people.
