14 Best Things to Do in Zócalo, Mexico City | Condé Nast Traveler

"This cathedral was built over two centuries (from 1573 to 1813) and is the largest in Latin America. The Spanish built it over the ruins of the Aztec Templo Mayor and used some of the stones of the fallen edifice to construct the church. Since it was built over such a long time, it features a mix of Renaissance, Baroque, and Neo-classical styles in its design." - Scarlett Lindeman
