Machado Square

Machado Square is one of the oldest squares in the city of Mazatlan. The date of its foundation is considered to be 1837. The initiator of the construction was a rich merchant of silver fabrics and pearls Don Juan Nepomuceno Machado. The design of the square was influenced by French and Spanish architectural styles.

Over time, the design of the square lost its grandeur and originality.

The authorities of Masaltan over the past decade have invested heavily in the restoration of the square.

On the perimeter of the square are street cafes, theaters, museums, hotels. During the year, mass musical events are held on the square.
