A grandiose, art deco-like structure, Monumento y Museo de la Revolucion attracts visitors each year with its blend of Mexican history, European-influenced architecture, and far-reaching views of the surrounding city. Frenchman Emile Bernard won the rights to design the structure in 1897, but it took until 1938 to finish construction. Standing an impressive 67 m (227 ft) in height, the monument looks almost modern despite its long history. A brass-like red roof adds color to the structure, whilst artistic pieces complement the surrounding area.

Huge and impressive monument; the grounds surrounded are lovely. Many events are held here so check before you go to see if you can get close up. Nice part of town and some fascinating Art Deco building are along the streets next to the monument.

I was surprised on the size of this monument. It is definitely built solid as you walk through it's steel base. It provides a great 360 view of the city surroundings. Might be a challenge if you are elderly due to the tight corners and odd staircases.
