The Zócalo (officially known as the Plaza de la Constitución) in Mexico City is a historic and bustling square that holds a significant place in the city's culture and history. Here are three highlights you should definitely explore when visiting the Zócalo: Metropolitan Cathedral (Catedral Metropolitana): One of the most prominent landmarks on the Zócalo is the Metropolitan Cathedral. This awe-inspiring cathedral is one of the largest and oldest in the Americas, and its construction spans centuries, reflecting various architectural styles from Baroque to Neoclassical. Inside, you'll find intricate chapels, stunning religious artwork, and relics of historical and cultural significance. Climbing the bell towers offers panoramic views of the Zócalo and the surrounding area. National Palace (Palacio Nacional): Adjacent to the Metropolitan Cathedral, the National Palace is an imposing building with a fascinating history. It's the official residence of the President of Mexico and also houses important government offices. One of the major draws for visitors is Diego Rivera's monumental murals that adorn the interior walls of the palace. These murals depict Mexico's history, from pre-Columbian times to the Mexican Revolution. The murals provide a vivid visual narrative of Mexico's cultural heritage and struggles. Templo Mayor Archaeological Site: Just steps away from the Zócalo, the Templo Mayor Archaeological Site offers a glimpse into the ancient Aztec capital of Tenochtitlán, which was situated on the same grounds that Mexico City now occupies. The site was discovered in the 1970s and continues to reveal more about the Aztec civilization. You can explore the remains of the Templo Mayor pyramid, sculptures, and other artifacts that provide insights into Aztec religious and cultural practices.
