AEROVEGA
La Alameda de León is a charming park located next to the central square (Zócalo) of the city of Oaxaca. Once a potters' market, it was transformed into a garden in 1840 thanks to the idea of Governor Antonio de León and his secretary Benito Juárez. The park was inaugurated in 1843 and named in honor of its founder. In 1885, a statue of General Antonio de León, defender of the homeland, was erected in the park. Recently refurbished, the park has been restored to its original appearance and offers magnificent views of the cathedral and other surrounding buildings.
