The place is like a park with plenty of places to sit down and enjoy the shade of the trees. It is a bit crowded and there are very few trashcans but it is a good place to rest your feet after a long walk. Be careful with beggars and street vendors, as they can be very insistent. You can find several street food options here as well, and they can be very cheap. To the left side, you can find the Franz Mayer museum and to the right side you can find the Museum of Memory and Tolerance. Both are worth the visit.

A nice large park located just outside of the Centro Historico. Its very centrally located between the Reforma Avenue and the historic sites with Palace of the fine arts sitting on its very edge. Beautifully landscaped with statues, fountains and small architecture incorporated into its design. Very well maintained and also usually very crowded. There is a metro line in the park close to the Bellas Artes as well.
