The Delegación Álvaro Obregón , named after the former Mexican President , is one of 16 districts ( delegaciones ) in the Mexican capital, Mexico City .
The Álvaro Obregón district was created in 1928 when the Delegaciones of Mexico City were formed. Before that, the region was called San Ángel , of which only the Colonia San Ángel , which forms part of the Delegación Álvaro Obregón, testifies to today.
Part of the Santa Fe business district also belongs to the Álvaro Obregón district , which also merges into the neighboring district of Cuajimalpa de Morelos to the west.
In addition to the actual Álvaro Obregón, the towns of Cuauhtlamila , Ampliación San Bernabé and El Ermitaño also belong to the Delegación Álvaro Obregón.
