... from the ''[[Manila Galleons]]'' ... The port was harassed by hostile powers and by [[Piracy in the Caribbean|pirate]]s, who succeeded in pillaging the city in 1653 and in 1712. In response to such dangers the large [[fortress]] of [[San Juan de Ulúa]] was built on an island in the harbour, beginning in 1565 and substantially expanded several times later.
 
 
Históricamente esta ciudad y puerto destaca por haber sido fundada por Hernán Cortés, encontrándose en la región por la que los españoles desembarcaron para emprender la conquista de Tenochtitlan. Además ha recibido el nombramiento de Cuatro veces heroica por decreto presidencial, a raíz de haber enfrentado cuatro distintas invasiones extranjeras.3
 
A natural harbour, Veracruz has been fought over throughout its history, and boasts the title "Four Times Heroic" in reference to the expulsion of the Spanish in 1815, the 1838 occupation of the [[French Navy]] in the [[Pastry War]], and resistance, but later surrender, to the [[United States]]'s occupations of 1847 and 1914 (see: [[Siege of Veracruz]] and [[U.S. occupation of Veracruz, 1914]]).
 
During the [[Mexican-American War]], US forces led by Gen. [[Winfield Scott]] took the city on March 29, 1847 after a [[siege]]. It was captured by [[France]] in 1838 and again in 1861. In 1914 it was occupied by the United States for seven months because of the [[Tampico Affair]], this time under [[Major General]] [[Frederick Funston]].
 
The [[railroad]] connecting Veracruz to [[Mexico City]], {{convert|425|km|mi}} inland over mountain ranges, was constructed during the administration of [[Benito Juárez]] and inaugurated in 1873.
 
==Demographics==
 
As of the census of 2000, there were 500,000 people living in Veracruz City.
 
The racial makeup of the city was 60% Mestizo, 15% Black/[[Afro-Mexican]], 15% Indian, 9% Mixed, the remaining 1% is composed by many immigrants, especially Middle-Easterns and Italians.
 
==Culture==

[[Image:DSC00695.JPG|right|thumb|The plaza in the center of the city of Veracruz]]
The city is known for its rich traditions of [[music]], including [[marimba]] bands, [[danzón]] and [[comparsa]]. A special kind of music called ''[[son jarocho]]'', a mix of Mexican folk music and Cuban [[son (music)|''son'']], was developed in southern Veracruz state, in and around Veracruz, Veracruz. [[La Bamba (song)|La Bamba]] is the most famous example of ''son jarocho''. An equally rich dance tradition parallels Veracruz's unique musical styles.
 
In downtown Veracruz, a large marble-tiled [[zócalo]], called the Plaza de Armas or Plaza Lerdo, is the heart of the city's lively nightlife. It is lined with arcades that house bars and cafes. On a nearly nightly basis large groups of people sit outside in the plaza enjoying food, drinks and cigars, while they watch musicians and dancers that perform in the square. Veracruz's 18th century cathedral and 17th century Palacio Municipal are also located on the plaza.
 
The yearly Carnaval festival in Veracruz, a nine-day party in February or March, is the most spectacular festival of its kind, and it's also the oldest organized Carnaval in Mexico. The city also celebrates a yearly Afrocaribeño festival in July. These festivities illustrate the fact that the city is in many ways more connected to [[Caribbean]] culture than that of inland Mexico.
 
The "Malecón" harborfront walk along the docks draws many tourists, more from within Mexico than foreigners. The city has several beaches as well, like Villa del Mar and Mocambo.

The city also has railroad connections with the city of [[Xalapa, Veracruz]] and to [[Mexico City]].
 
==Trivia==
As a bustling port city, Veracruz was the site of some of the most vicious pirate raids in the Gulf of Mexico. In 1683, the 5,000 citizens of Veracruz were trapped in the city, when the pirates [[Laurens de Graff]] and [[Michel de Grammont]] held it under siege. Together their crew of 600 looted the city and terrorized the inhabitants and left unscathed several days later.
 
Secret tunnels are said to exist under the city. Local lore has it that they were built during the colonial era by a countess who used them to engage affairs with men in different locations in the city while her husband was away.
