The heart of Mexico City is the Plaza de la Constitución. Residents began calling it the Zócalo, meaning ‘base,’ in the 19th century, when plans for a major monument to independence went unrealized, leaving only the pedestal. Measuring 220m from north to south, and 240m from east to west, it’s one of the world’s largest city squares.

Gastronomía
If you want to try popular Mexican cuisine, you can't miss going to Boturini, where they even dedicated an episode to it in the Netflix series "La Crónica del Taco". Although the most famous are the Güeros, I would recommend visiting other nearby taquerias that also do not lose quality.
