México City's historic center starts at the huge plaza called Zócalo and works its way out in all directions. We grabbed our EcoBici's this past Saturday night and headed downtown in search of our favorite churro stand. After fully satisfying our sweet tooth we took a stroll down Juarez and onto the busy promenade that leads to Zócalo. It has been months since we were in the area after dark and had forgotten how beautiful the buildings are when lit and the energy and life that fills the streets.
People everywhere, musicians serenading from balconies, a wedding procession, street performers, dogs and kids flying kites in the plaza...
Centro Histórico has always been our favorite area of the city and it was great to be reminded of why we love it so much.
