This Mexico land was the market zone.\u00c2\u00a0 This area has gone through numerous transformations.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the beginning of the 20th century, this zone was known as the “The horn of plenty”, given that along the length of the street, people could obtain a wide variety of products and services.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is 65th street, at the beginning was the original and main avenue of the City of Merida.\u00c2\u00a0 “Paseo de las Bonitas”.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

Today, you will not notice the facade of the Lucas de Galvez market.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Citadel of San Benito, this is where the San Benito market also exists.\u00c2\u00a0 The military barracks are seen on the far side which no longer exists today.\u00c2\u00a0 The water tower stands on the right hand side<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

Above you can see the the facade of the Franciscanos of Yucatan.\u00c2\u00a0 This was the largest convent in Yucatan.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

It was destoryed in the middle of the 19th century in order to construct the military barracks<\/strong><\/p>\n

Which was also destroyed in order to make the marketplace.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There have been many constructions where the current marketplace is located:<\/strong><\/p>\n

– The Pyramids of the Mayans of the City of T’ho,<\/strong><\/p>\n

-Then the Convent of San Francisco,<\/strong><\/p>\n

-Afterwards the Citadel of San Benito,<\/strong><\/p>\n
