Palacio del Gobierno

Historic building that dates back to the 18th century that traces the period from the Spanish Conquest to the Revolution.

Reviewed By marcain - Washington DC, United States

Outstanding. You will be welcomed in front of the museum, with help in buying the tickets for admission (50 pesos/person, cheaper for seniors). The person who helps you will offer a tour of the museum, take the offer. The guides are very knowledgeable, and clearly love what they're showing you. I offered a tip at the end of our very helpful tour through the exhibits, which our guide very graciously but definitively declined. So, a donation to the museum. Which is quite wonderful.

Paseo de Santa Lucia

A historic street in downtown Monterrey passing through the Plaza de los 40 Años and the Mexican History Museum.

Reviewed By L4430FCmanuelm - Puerto Penasco, Mexico

Not only the city of Monterrey rescued an area which had been abandoned for decades if not for centuries. It added a tourist attraction for visitors as well as for locals. Although San Antonio, TX river walk was first, Monterrey’s is far larger. The boat ride is $60 pesos per adult and it includes a round trip with the opportunity to get out of the boat at the opposite end of the ride to tour the surroundings, either the Macroplaza or the Fundidora park. This river walk sits where it once was the bank of the Santa Lucía water wells where Monterrey was founded more than 400 years ago. Talk about a place with history.
