01 / The experience

Zócalo · Plaza de la Constitución

Use the Zócalo as the main landmark for a Centro outing, with Templo Mayor nearby and Bellas Artes further west. During Día de Muertos, visit the monumental ofrenda only within the city’s announced opening arrangements.

Allow for queues and managed pedestrian entry. The square's pin represents the host plaza; it does not identify an installation entrance, a meeting point or a guaranteed quiet viewing position. Ask before photographing people and leave altar objects undisturbed.
