\nA speed bump isn't a speed reducer at all, as Google images show. It's a speed bump. These are what people remember most about Mexico. There are many speed bumps there, and they vary greatly: single, double, triple, high, shallow, homemade, unpredictable, unmarked (like the twilight speed bump surprise), and so on. But overall, it's all fun \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Mexico City<\/strong><\/p>\n

It's best to change money at the airport. Surprisingly, the exchange rate is noticeably worse throughout the rest of the country.
\nTaxis in Mexico City are cheap (comparable to Izhevsk), but again, if you take a taxi from the airport, you'll get ripped off. Mexicans generally love to rip you off.<\/p>\n

We went to the Garibaldi Hotel; it was lovely. Its biggest advantage is its location. Right next to Garibaldi Square, with its wild mariachos (Mexican musicians), or whatever they're called, who are always eager to play for you. The historic center is all around. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

Exit the hotel and turn right.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

to the right\u2026 (Spanish architecture)<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

right..<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

And here it is \u2013 the historical central square!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

Cathedral<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

A giant flag in the very center of the central square! Its height is... well, 5 meters or more! The beautiful combination of red, white, and green makes any flag beautiful (Italy, for example). And the placement of the white flag off the edge is also very convenient. You can at least apply the flag to a white background.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

Big flag on top and small helicopter on bottom.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

Antiguo Palacio del Ayuntamiento (Russian: Gostiny Dvor, something from the municipal institutions)<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

Every respectable Mexican city has its own "Gosti Dvor," especially if the Spanish occupiers had a hand in it.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

Cool lilac trees.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

A traffic light for cyclists. While I was taking a photo of it, they also introduced something related to bicycles in our country.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

Landmark! To get to the center, you need to look for that tall building.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

The Palace of Fine Arts (Palacio de Bellas Artes). Inside, it looks a bit like the cultural center in Izhevsk or even Tyumen. Square marble columns and a floor. And then there's the cloakroom.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

And in Mexico, for the first time in my life, I saw a Pepsi-Cola truck. Just like this one, only blue!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

A monument to some Lenin.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

An ambiguous monument with Beethoven!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

In the nearby (central) park there is a flower that looks like an onion in bloom!<\/p>\n

Oh yeah, on the side of the park, a two-way, somewhat-or-less road suddenly turns into a one-way road, and it's invigorating \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

Mexico has a lot of police. In some places, they drive pickup trucks with machine guns mounted on the roof, which is, to put it mildly, intimidating.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

Well, there you have it. Everywhere there are their own cast-iron benches, beautiful and ornate, with local identification.<\/p>\n

Then we went to the zoo\u2026<\/p>\n
