ILCME, the International Congress on Mathematical Education, in its eleventh edition is to be held in Monterrey, Mexico from June 6th to 13th, 2008. (History and General Info on ICME)

Monterrey is the capital city of the state of Nuevo Leon, situated in the Northeast of Mexico around 2 hours by land from the Texas border. It lies at the foot of the Cerro de la Silla, a saddle-shaped hill which has become symbolic of the city's identity. In recent years it has seen a rapid growth in many aspects including industry, trade, culture and population. It is now a lively, modern city of 4 million, home to an enterprising and hard-working people.

Things to do in this city and its surroundings include plunging into local culture and folklore, both traditional and contemporary, trying out the wonders of modern Mexican fusion cuisine, exploring the sophisticated night scene, relaxing in fully-equipped hotels and spas, and taking in the magnificent natural settings ranging from solitary desert flatland to dazzling waterfalls.
