Park · Hidden Gem · Landmark
Take a tranquil stroll under the shady poplars lining the marble paths of Alameda Central. A leafy refuge amid the bustle of downtown Mexico City, the park has provided citizens and visitors with a quiet, reflective space since 1592. The park faces the city's fine art museum, and is dotted with sculptures and fountains of both Mexican and European origin. Sit for a spell or amble around this green space that has become a symbol of a traditional Mexican park.

    It is relaxing and also historical. Now there are more policemen and guards all over the place. Also less ambulant sellers that's awesome. There is more space and green areas to relax or bike to do activities.

    At this time of the year is just fantastic to walk at this place (the jacaranda tree is blooming) the sight is just beyond imagination, the flowers are purple and foliage green what a beautiful combination!
