The Metropolitan Cathedral is the not only the largest cathedral in Mexico City, but in the whole of the Americas. It is located on the main Plaza de la Constitución (also referred to as the Zócalo). Construction of the Metropolitan Cathedral began in 1573 and was not completed until 1813. With impressive façades, sixteen chapels (fourteen of which are open to the public) and two bell towers containing a total of 25 bells each, as well as stunningly beautiful interiors, this Cathedral is a sight not to be missed.
