Plaza de la Solidaridad
Plaza de la Solidaridad is a plaza in Mexico City, adjacent to Alameda Central, in Mexico.[1] During the sixteenth century, the area in which the park is now located was on the outskirts of the city. When the city grew and urbanized, the Convent of San Diego occupied the space.[2]
