Av. de la Paz

The Avenida de la Paz was once part of a rest area for the upper class. The street is full of houses owned by wealthy families that lived in this street over two centuries ago and that bear witness to the area's once thriving splendour. The Avenida Revolución was completed in 1952, and Insurgentes in 1955, which provided easy access to this part of the city. Today that tranquillity is long gone, as the street was paved in stone and is awash in commercial activity.
