Nuevo León is not only recognized for its buildings and gastronomy but also for the beauty of its spaces. This time, we took on the task of finding the most beautiful street in Monterrey and Paseo Santa Lucía has what it takes to be the winner. We’ll tell you more about it.
It is a 2.3-kilometer-long canal; it begins at Fundidora Park and culminates at the Museum of Mexican History. Residents and tourists do not miss the opportunity to go for a walk and marvel at the attractions that are concentrated in the area.
This artificial body of water is navigable, making it a perfect option for strolling and having fun. It was inaugurated on September 15, 2007 and since then it has become a very popular site.
The landscape of Paseo Santa Lucía is adorned with 24 illuminated fountains, murals, esplanades, viewpoints, murals, walkways, bridges and gardens. Those who pass through on foot will find a delicious gastronomic offer that delights even the most demanding palates.
It should be noted that during 2007, this trail appeared on the list of the 13 man-made wonders project, a campaign carried out by TV Azteca and the then Mexican Tourism Promotion Council.
The Historic Center of Mexico City, the Zone of Teotihuacán, the Port of Mazatlán and Palenque in Chiapas are some of the sites that also made the list.
