Zocalo, Mexico City
La Plaza de la Constitucion, informally called El Zocalo, is the main square in Mexico City. Located in the historic center of Mexico City, it is one of the largest squares in the world. Plaza de la Constitucion (and the area that surrounds it) has been the center of Mexico City since pre-Hispanic times, when the Templo Mayor of Tenochtitlan rose in what today is Seminario Street, at the right of the Metropolitan Cathedral and Sagrario. When the Spanish built Mexico City over the ruins of Tenochtitlan in the colonial era, all the streets were developed from the orientation of the Plaza Mayor. Mexican food, tekila and sun. Can you imagine better vacation. It if far from Europe but there are cheap flights if you plann it earlier.
