Cishe isigamu sekhulu leminyaka edlule, ugogo wami, owayesekhulile kakhulu, wakhuluma ngokumangala kwedolobha elisha elisenyakatho neMazatlán, kodwa lalingekho lelo; empeleni kwakungekhona ngaphezu kwekoloni elidumile lokuqala elalingezwa eMazatlán ayelazi.
Kodwa-ke, manje sizobe silungile uma singasho okufanayo nogogo wami, ngoba iMazatlán yamanje yakhiwe ngamadolobha amabili ahluke kakhulu: i-Historic Center, equkethwe phakathi kweCathedral, i-Angela Peralta theatre nePaseo de Olas Altas, futhi, ngokwehlukana ngamakhilomitha amahlanu amabhishi ne-boardwalk, idolobha elisha lezivakashi lemibhoshongo emikhulu, amakhondomu, ama-marinas nenkundla yegalufu. Bahluke kakhulu kangangoba ezinye izivakashi, ngemuva kwesonto lezikhathi, babuyela ezweni labo ngaphandle kokwazi isimo sekhulu leminyaka leshumi nesishiyagalolunye leMazatlán yakudala.
Ngibiza "okudala" hhayi "okudala" kwiMazatlán ye-Historic Center ngoba leli gama lokugcina livusa ngokuzenzekelayo i-pre-Hispanic noma i-colonial. IMazatlán ayinakho lokho. Zazingekho izindawo zomdabu noma zamakholoni ngoba nje kwakungekho manzi okuphuza kule nhlonhlo eyivelakancane ebizwa ngesiNahuatl “Venados Place”. Ukukhonjwa kwayo njengendawo yokuhlala yabantu kwaqondana kakhulu ne-Independence, phakathi kuka-1810 no-1821. Ukuqhamuka kwezohwebo okwathi kamuva kwazakhela udumo njenge- "Northwest Warehouse" akuzange kuqale kuze kube ngawo-1930, ngokufika kwe abathengisi bokuqala baseYurophu, ikakhulukazi amaJalimane. AbaseSpain bafika ngawo-1940, ngemuva kokuthi iMexico neSpain benze ukuthula ngo-1839.
Kusukela ngaleso sikhathi umsebenzi omkhulu wasolwandle wezentengiselwano waseMazatlán waqala, okokuqala kuphela ngeYurophu naseziQhingini zasePhilippines, kodwa engxenyeni yokugcina yesithathu yekhulu leminyaka, ikakhulukazi neSan Francisco. Ngaleso sikhathi ukwakhiwa okukhulu kwe-Historic Center kwenziwa kanye nesitayela se-tropical neoclassical esichaza ukwakhiwa kwethu kwachazwa, i-neoclassical enwetshiwe kancane kunaleyo yamadolobha angaphakathi futhi ivulekele emoyeni nenjabulo.
Ngokwengxenye yayo, idolobha elisha, elaziwa ngokuthi yi "Golden Zone", liyindodakazi yeMpi Yesibili Yomhlaba kanye nokukhula okuxakile okutholwa ukuvakasha kwamazwe omhlaba ngenxa yentuthuko yezindiza nokuchuma okwenziwa izimboni ezintsha zobuchwepheshe ezakhiwe izidingo njengempi.
Umphumela walokho kwaba ukwakhiwa nokwanda kwamahhotela kuphela abavakashi futhi, ikakhulukazi ogwini lolwandle. Yaqala kanjalo iHotel Playa, eyayingeyokuqala, olwandle lwaseLas Gaviotas, amakhilomitha ayisithupha ukusuka lapho iMazatlán endala yabe isiphela khona. Leli hhotela liyaqhubeka nokukhula kanye nenqwaba yama-emulators akamuva, kanye nezindawo zokuhlala ezikhethekile ezingadonsi nje abantu bokufika kuphela kodwa futhi neMazatlecos efuna ukunethezeka nokuphepha kwentuthuko yanamuhla.
Lokhu kukhula, noma kunjalo, ngesinye isikhathi kwasongela iMazatlán endala ngokufa. Kwaqala kancane, kwase kuba nodlame, kwakhipha inani labantu nezinsizakalo ezinjengezinema, imitholampilo namahhovisi asemthethweni, kwasala kuphela ingxenye endala yedolobha. Ngo-1970, manje okuyi-Historic Center kwase kuphenduke indawo yenhlekelele, amabhulokhi onke eshiywe. Ngo-1975 iSiphepho u-Olivia sadabula uphahla e-Angela Peralta Theatre, eyasheshe yaphenduka ihlathi elaliphethwe yindumezulu yesithangami.
Yileyo ndlela uMazatlán ahlukaniswa ngayo lapho iqembu labathandi beSinaloan liqala ukwakha kabusha iSikhungo Sezomlando ukusenza sibe yilokho eliyikho namuhla: okuheha okungenakuvinjelwa izivakashi ezigcwele inkundla yokudlela nezindawo zokudlela endaweni. Kungakho ubungqayizivele obungenakuphikiswa beMazatlán buqukethe ukuphela kwendawo olwandle kuyo yonke iMexico ene-Historic Center enempilo yayo futhi eyaqhubeka selokhu yasungulwa. Lokhu kubalwa.
I-Pulmonias: ezokuthutha ezikhethekile
Esikhathini esidlule kuze kube seminyakeni embalwa edlule, eMazatlán amakhalenda ayedonswa yizilwane ezazibuthelwa empini ayesetshenziswa ukuthutha abagibeli; lezi manje sezithathelwe indawo yinyumoniya enhle, okuyizimoto ezincane ezivulekile emaceleni.
