This historic square is an ideal place to take a little break amongst its shady trees. In the center of the plaza is the monument of the Niños Heroes. It features the sculpture of an eagle and six bronze figures that represent the teenage cadets who are reported to have sacrificed their lives in the 1847 battle of Chapultepec against invading U.S forces.

Large platform dominates the square that is dedicated to the Ninos Heros killed by USA Marines in Mexico City in 1848. Only a block away from main Merida police station and across the street from the UADY architecture campus, lots of students hanging out. Unfortunatly drunks, and annoying self-entitled street verdors here selling pure crap. They spoil it for everyone who would like to sit quietly and enjoy the park. This a general problem in parts of Merida. Old church, now closed, on SE corner across from the square. South and west the neighborhood is genteifying. Inside the old walled city, witk classic arched gates to the walled city 1 block south.

Had a great time at this plant expo. Honestly when I arrived I thought oh, there isn't a lot of vendors but more came and the selections were definitely worth it. Even won a Hoya in a drawing on site! Definitely going back at the end of May for round 2, Lol!

Love the christmas flowers. We walked through te park while we were going to the museo de arte yucatan. Lovely christmas music at the park, not so many turists there, so that's always great. The policemen were walking through the park!

El parque de la mejorada es uno de los barrios característicos con los que cuenta la ciudad de Mérida, y cuenta con varios lugares que ver, por ejemplo el exconvento de la mejorada que ahora es la Facultad de arquitectura, un cecuni, escuela de música, museo de la canción yucateca y a unas cuadras más se encuentra la ex estación de ferrocarriles, actual escuela de arte. El parque es tranquilo, no hay tantos vendedores ambulantes, y aveces suele ser el lugar de eventos culturales. De igual forma se realiza el camino de flores. Un corredor de plantas y flores que forman figuras representativas del Estado de Yucatán.

I had read about this place and needed to find out what it was all about. Great little gift shop with a café. Some very nice things that I have not seen before in Merida. Prices are reasonable. Check it out!
