Combine a visit to Plaza Hidalgo with the Frida Kahlo Museum

Feb 2022

This Plaza is well worth a visit, especially when combined with a visit to the Frida Kahlo Museum about a 10 minute walk away. A really beautiful area with plenty of cafes and restaurants.

Meeting Point in the Village

Jul 2019

In contrast to the Jardin Centenario next door, the Plaza Hidaldo is more lively and fell like a plaza in Central America countries. Plaza Hidaldo has a huge plaza space with a gazebp in the middle for rest or for special displays. It is situated right in the middle of all commercial of the old village. People are watching people of performance. Great place to gauge what is going on around or to make a rest while not missing much of the bustling atmosphere of the area.

Lovely plaza with lots of shopping options

Dec 2017 • Friends

We visited this place with some friends from Coyoacán, The place has a lot of options around to buy some corn, some churros call mom and some are crafts that are made locally. The place is recommended to be visited any day during the week especially on the weekends

Beautiful, bustling, relaxing

Apr 2017 • Couples

Plaza Hidalgo is a pretty little square in Coyoacan. Gets very busy as the day wears on. Early morning is most tranquil.

Wondeful Park - Central Coyoacan

Mar 2017 • Friends

We loved the fountain of two coyotes. We were in the park for quite some time. The water was full and running when we first arrived. When we left it was turned off. Of course it is more dramatic when the water is running. What we loved the most was watching an old man feed the volumes and volumes of squirrels. I've never seen so many multi colored brown and black and very healthy looking squirrels running up and down trees. This man was bouncing between a huge palm tree and another large multi limbed tree. The squirrels came right up to him to eat the peanuts. (The squirrels don't look anything like California squirrels, just saying.) The area around this park is quite beautiful too.

Center of Coyoacan

Mar 2016 • Couples

Plaza Hidalgo is the beating heart of the colonial Coyoacan District. Located at the confluence of Avenue of Miguel Hidalgo, Higuera street and Avenue of Francisco Sosa
it is a lively center of this formerly independent town. The plaza itself is filled with trees and has the appearance of a park, it is lined on all sides with historic buildings the most important of which are the Casa de Hernan Cortez, which is now a museum, and the baroque church of San Juan Bautista. There are restaurants and cantinas located in the colorful buildings all around the plaza, there is also a historic gazebo called "The Kiosk of Coyoacan". This is a lively place that stays full of people into the night, especially during the weekends. Highly recommended.
