There was a book and stationary fair here during our time in the city. Couldn't see much of the square due to all the tents. But anyway its just a central city square you find in many cities all over… Full review by cmchilds

Me estaré quedando en un hotel frente al zócalo y quisiera saber si de noche se puede caminar por los alrededores sin peligro, asistiremos a un evento en Bellas artes q debe terminar alrededor de las 10 pm y no se si podré regresar caminando al hotel por el tema de la seguridad a esa hora de la noche. Gracias de antemano.

Mi hija y yo caminamos hasta las 11:30 pm sin ninguna preocupación. Nos quedamos frente a la iglesia principal y caminamos por todo el zocalo. Nos sentimos seguros, aunque éramos turistas. Vimos muchos policías estacionados en las esquinas de camino. Es una ciudad hermosa, disfruta tu viaje. Solo sé consciente de tus rodeos y usa el sentido común.
Does anyone know if the white tents are still there? are they permanently installed?
A:
The white tents are not permanent in the sense that they are there year-round. They are there to allow for the regional markets to have a place to display and sell their wares, …
The white tents are not permanent in the sense that they are there year-round. They are there to allow for the regional markets to have a place to display and sell their wares, and the regions and vendors change on a regular basis. Generally they are up for much of the year but not always. These are great market places and don't be afraid to bargain. Enjoy!!
How much time would you recommend I plan to spend walking around just the square and seeing the various sites in it? Please don't count any time I might spend in a church, museum, or separate attraction on the square. I'm trying to figure out if this is a 2 hour, 4 hour, whole day, etc. kind of thing.
A:
2 hours should be plenty of time to walk around and visit the church & possibly the museums. This is definitely not a whole day thing, after 2-3 hours you would want to get some rest …
2 hours should be plenty of time to walk around and visit the church & possibly the museums. This is definitely not a whole day thing, after 2-3 hours you would want to get some rest or go have something to eat.
Are they still doing the bringing down of the flags? If so, what time? Is the Zocalo currently opened? I remember I went a few years back and I loved the soldiers come in and do the flag ceremonies.

We went in July-August 2023 for week to Mexico City and stayed at a hotel right across the Palacio Nacional for a full week. We were disappointed-no fanfare for raising and lowering the flag. We wanted our granddaughters to have that experience like we had had 3 times before. Soldiers would come out from the Palacio Nacional and raise it in the morning and lower it in the evening, but no drumming, bugles and trumpets playing la marcha, no soldiers marching, everything done fast and silent.
