Centro Historico - Mexico City
I love old buildings. Heritage architecture always fascinates me since I was little. There's something magical about old buildings. It's elegant, grande, mystical and mysterious. It hides a lot of secrets and talents of the architects. Nining and I went to Centro Historico yesterday but it was raining and we ended up freezing. So, today we decided to revisit the site once again. Thank God it's a sunny day. This is summer! This is more like it!
Centro Historico Mexico City started with a huge monument in the park, conjuncted to The Palace. It's really grande. Across the Palace the shopping arcade is standing all the way to the Cathedral Square. There are various stores there such as SEARS, ZARA, Bershka, The Body Shop and other branded stores. All the shops built in a heritage building, including the MacDonald's, KFC and Burger King. The streets made of paving blocks which gave the classic touch. There are several churches and museum.
All the way at the end of the street, the Cathedral Square is waiting. It's a huge arena surrounded by heritage buildings at its 4 corners. Three building complex are shopping arcades, another one is The National Palace and the other one is where the Cathedral is standing. On the side walk, people from the tribes in Mexico are having performances and selling souvenirs. They were wearing traditional clothes. Very interesting! Thanks to the sunny day, I could really enjoy the Centro Historico today. It was a great experience to be able to stand in such historical area.
