Overview

La Purisima Basilica opens the journey with its bold 1940s modernist architecture. Padre Mier brings you into the daily pulse of Monterrey street life. Puente del Papa carries the story of a papal mass above the Santa Catarina River. Plaza Hidalgo offers a quiet square in the middle of a World Cup city running at full energy. Explanada de los Héroes connects civic pride to Mexican history. Macroplaza closes the tour — one of the largest plazas on earth with monuments, gardens and the Faro del Comercio rising above it all.
