Macroplaza

Macroplaza is the zocalo, or central plaza, of downtown Monterrey. It is a long green space with fountains, statues, gardens, and monuments. There is a really cool fountain, called Neptune's Fountain, that you can't miss! You can also see the Faro Comercial, which is a bright orange obelisk that is a monument to Monterrey's business orientation.

Around the park are also many historical buildings and museums, including the Monterrey Cathedral, the Mexican History Museum, the Monterrey Contemporary Art Museum, and the former palace of the governor. Overall, it's a very nice public space to walk around in and hang out.
