Mexico City offers many interesting places to visit, here we leave a list by some of the most outstanding
attractions.

Plaza de la Constitución (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.

Metropolitan Cathedral (north 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.

National Palace (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.
Temple (east of the northern corner 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.

Nacional Monte de Piedad .- 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.

Chapultepec Park is the largest park in Mexico City, which gives this city a beautiful place filled with
acres and is the green heart of it. This park has three of the most important museums in Mexico City,
an amusement park with an attractive wooden coaster, a beautiful castle, genuine in North America, a
zoo and the residence of the President. For people who like water, this park has several lakes where you
can do rowing boat rides, water park with various slides and tunnels. You can enjoy an incredible day
out in this wonderful forest.

Six Flags Magic .- This is an amusement park that is south of Mexico City. In this grand amusement park
rides are distributed in many different representations of various parts of the world, like the Wild West or a
Polynesian people, and even a Swiss. This park offers some dolphin shows, walks along a river, several
places to eat and more. Among the attractions of Mexico City, no doubt, this will be the favorite of families
for children.

The Estadio Azteca .- The majestic Coloso de Santa Ursula is the home of football and massive space for
different events. World Cup twice and platform on which the two stars of the sport played, Pele and
Maradona, has also received the Pope John Paul II, Michael Jackson and personalities of great renown.
The Azteca is a monumental stadium with a capacity to receive more than 110 000 spectators and well
worth knowing while you enjoy a game of football fan circuit.
