Reforma Avenue – Mexico City
Monday, January 8th, 2007I really enjoy strolling down Reforma Ave in Mexico City. It’s considered the principal avenue in the republic, being centrally located in the capital and running from the Zocalo, past numerous important buildings, to the gates of Chapultepec Park and the Chapultepec Castle.
Numerous large monuments dot Reforma Avenue, but what I like most is the ever-changing exhibitions about it. Book fairs, works of art, absurd statues, colorful cows…every month is different.
At the center of it all is the Angel of Independence, a monument that imposes herself in a large traffic circle. I live closeby. The Angel is where Mexican soccer fans gather whenever the national team wins somewhere in the world.
