The most important monument. It has been influenced by the statue in France. We were in the city close to dia de muertos so there were plenty of decorations in the Avenue Reforma for the parade and celebrations.

Tall obelisk atop of which is the Angel of Independence. We were there during the quieter part of the day and season. Seems to be a popular place to hang out. Sadly right now there is some construction happening around the site.

It was a beautiful place to take pictures, lots of people and be careful of your belongings when you are preoccupied taking pictures and admiring the angle as there is a lot of sus people around for sure. There is someone who comes and asks IF you speak Spanish (in EnglishI just ignored.Watch crossing the road getting to the angel

It is a nice place to take the typical touristy photos and there are nice cafés nearby. However, the angel is located at the very centre of a roundabout and there is no crossing dedicated for pedestrians, thus special care must be taken when trying to get there.

Awesome tourist attraction surrounded by parks, hotels, restaurants, bars, souvenir shops, etc. Good place to spend time with friends, walk around, or people watch. It’s a stunning and beautiful statue. If you want the statue to yourself you have to get their early to avoid so many cars in traffic and people sitting around near the statue.

One of the things I loved about Mexico City was the massive and extravagant decor placed in roundabouts. This one being probably the most famous one.

The area around here is really what you want to see! The angel was really cool to see and glad I got the photos. Some of the tour buses pickup right here and make sure you can run across traffic to see it :)

All the way from Dallas, TX! This is a pretty busy area with cars but you can make your way over no problem! Once you get on the stairs (base of the Angelit is a nice place to people watch and take photos! Maybe even read a book? It’s a very beautiful spot! With lots of different people and opportunities to enjoy yourself.

It is beautiful to see and there is enough other things within walking distance that its worth the trip. If you want to get close you will have to run across the road but if you wait for a local and follow their lead it isnt so hard.

One of the best emblematic monuments in CDMX located in Paseo de la Reforma. Place is clean and there is always a police officer nearby. A must when visiting CDMX.

So there is not a safe way to get to the statue. So what I did was when the light was in red I ran across inbetween the stopped cars, PLEASE watch out for motor bikes, bikes, motorcycle.I would say that you may want to stay safe and see it from the outermost circle aka side walk. But it is a beautiful site close up.

Very nice place to take some pictures, I recommend to go night and day time. Best pictures can be take on the opposite side of reforma ave. ( Towards Chapultepec). We preferred on the night time. Very safe at anytime.

Also known as el Ángel, this iconic monument was built in 1910 to commemorate the 100th year of the beginning of Mexico’s struggle for independence from Spain. In 1925, the bottom part was converted to a mausoleum for the important heroes of that war. During the widespread demonstrations over violence against women in 2019, it was defaced with graffiti, so authorities surrounded it with protective metal plates while cleaning it up and adding more retrofits for future earthquakes. Only a couple of weeks ago were the plates removed. I was fortunate enough to be staying in a hotel room that had a view.

Visited here on a Sunday so was able to take a leisurely stroll along the Paseo Reforma road. Found some yoga classes too happening near the statue. If you are free on a Sunday morning, this is a good place to start the day with a walk or a jog around this statue.
