Mexico
City Attractions - Zocalo
The great square, called the Zocalo,
evokes the place of homage and center of the world which was the
heart of the ceremonial nucleus of Mexico-Tenochtitlan.
The Zocalo symbolises the fusion of the rhythmic beating of drums,
the ankle-rattles of the native dancers and the glowing incense
of modern day medicine men. A point of reference, of protest, of
ritual and of national celebration, by night it is an imposing spectacle
which culminates in the tumultuous popular festivities
on the 15th of September (f Mexico's Independence Day).
