Life at the Zocalo

Link By Thushan Amarasiriwardena | January 11th, 2008

The Zocalos found in most Mexican cities are more than just the town’s main square, it’s a vibrant hub where everyone socializes, conducts business and simply lay about to watch the world go by. In our travels through three Central Mexico cities, we’ve constantly gravitated to each city’s Zocalo, and our last day in Oaxaca is no different. See and be seen at the Zocalo in Oaxaca with today’s photos.
