Mexico City offers many interesting places to visit, here we leave a list by some of the most outstanding
attractions.
P laza de la Co stitució (El Zócalo) .- With an area of 195m x 240m square, the Zocalo is one of the
largest squares in the world. Surrounded by the Metropolitan Cathedral to the north, and the National
Palace, east, and a number of other historic buildings. A huge Mexican flag is the center of the square,
which is lowered ceremoniously each day at 18:00 h. A variety of events can be found here, including
concerts, demonstrations and other social gatherings more typical. On New Year's Day, practitioners of
indigenous religions of Mexico gather to bless the faithful at the gate next year, Mexico's independence is
celebrated in the square on 15 and 16 September.
Metro olita Cathedral ( orth side of the Zócalo) .- It is the largest cathedral in the Americas, has a lot of
mixtures of Baroque art forms. The Metropolitan Cathedral is a cathedral that has a lot of mixtures of
Baroque art forms. It has a neoclassical facade with five separate buildings and beautiful chapels. As during
religious ceremonies can hear the cathedral organ, by reason of the weak structure of the land in the city,
the cathedral has been sinking over the years. Throughout the year, this shrine is visited by thousands of
tourists and pilgrims. It is one of the most beautiful cathedrals in Mexico.
It was designed by Claude Arcinieaga, construction began in 1573 and lasted for over 300 years. The
entrance to the cathedral is free.
N atio al P alace (east side of the Zócalo) .- The palace in its present form was begun in 1693 and served as
the Palace of the Viceroy of New Spain until the War of Independence of Mexico, when he became the
executive office of the President (but today is not his official residence.) The interior walls of the palace
contains murals by Diego Rivera depicting the history of Mexico since pre-Columbian Mexican
Revolution. You can also visit the legislative floor, a replica of the first Mexican Congress, and make the
tour of the house of Benito Juárez. Free admission with ID.

Tem le (east of the orther cor er of the Zocalo) .- The site of the Aztecs, the main temple of Tenochtitlan
was destroyed by Spanish conquistadors in 1521. Centuries later, almost completely forgotten, its actual
location was discovered by accident in 1978 when workers found a piece that represents the goddess
Coyolxauhqui. This set in motion years of archaeological excavations. Each layer can see walking through the
excavation, and after that the Museo del Templo Mayor, one floor of the museum displays many artifacts
found on the site. Tickets $ 48 USD, free for children under 12 and students with valid identification.
N acio al Mo te de P iedad .- Monte de Piedad and Cinco de Mayo. Monday through Friday from 8:30 to
18:00, Saturdays from 8:30 to 15:30, Sunday closed. This building, completed in 1758, was built on the home
of the Aztec Emperor Moctezuma and was later the residence of the Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés.
The building was purchased in 1838 by the Nacional Monte de Piedad, a pawn shop established in 1775 that
still operates today.
