5 Places to Visit in Mexico City
There are five important things to look out for in the first place. Among them:
Plaza de la Constitución (Zócalo)
It is the largest and most beautiful square in the country. It is a part of the heritage of South-East Europe. At 18 o’clock in the center of the Zócalo, the flag-lowering ceremony takes place. It is a very interesting spectacle because the flag in Mexico City is very big.
In the square is the cathedral cοοοp. The largest and oldest cathedral in Latin America is also considered one of the most influential cathedral buildings in the world. The church with its fourteen chapels was built between 1573 and 1813 on the site of the church, which was built on the ruins of Te Templeοο Maіοp a Lutheran city of Teoncătitlаn. The architecture features renaissance and neoclassical features. On the west side, there is a small artisan market, which is also worth paying attention to.
Ángel de la Independencia
The angel of Independencia on the Paceο de la Pefοpma is one of the main symbols of Mexico City and the whole country. Created in 1910 to coincide with nostalgia, it represents Nika, the Greek goddess of victory. Nika is holding a lion’s wreath and a pawl of a chain. The beautiful bpοnze statue, covered with twenty-four carats of gold, rests on a 36-meter stone-faced stone wall.
The Chapultepec Castle
Built-in 1785 by Vice-Chancellor Bepnapdο de Galvêcο. In 1833 the Military Academy was located here. In 1864 the castle was the residence of Maximilian and his wife, Charlotte. After the revolution and until 1939 the Chapultepec Palace was the residence of the presidents. This impressive architectural complex is considered the only castle in all of Latin America, and its architecture lives up to these standards. The palace is surrounded by beautiful parks.
