Plaza Grande

TIME : 2016/2/18 10:01:33

One of the nicest plazas in Mexico, huge laurel trees shade the park’s benches and wide sidewalks. It was the religious and social center of ancient T’ho; under the Spanish it was the Plaza de Armas, the parade ground, laid out by Francisco de Montejo (the Younger). There's a crafts market Sunday and dance or live music nearly every night.

A ceremony is held daily marking the raising and lowering of the Mexican flag.
