The Avenue of the Champs Elysees begins in the Place de la Concorde and in fact ends in the Glorieta del Arco del Triunfo, with an approximate length of 1800 meters. Although it continues towards the west it changes name and is known as Av. Charles de Gaulle. I do not know that part.The layout and construction of the avenue is done in 1724, but it was until 1824, 100 years later, that side walkers were built.

The Paseo de la Reforma was born of an idea of Maximilian during his short period of Emperor of Mexico, but his true splendor is due to Don Porfirio Diaz. The Paseo de la Reforma is very long, but its original line goes from the well known Glorieta del Nuevo Caballito to the Chapultepec Forest. In this section has 6 roundabouts and a length of approximately 5 km. It is also much wider and definitely, in my personal opinion, more beautiful.

While the sculpture at the top of the Column of Independence in Mexico is known as the Angel of Independence, in Paris the statue placed at the top represents the Angel of Freedom. It is clear that the similarities are quite clear. But which is more beautiful? I think the proportions of the Mexican Column are much better.

At the top of the Column of Independence is the symbol of Mexico City, recognized by everyone as El Angel. It landed in 1957 following the earthquake and was rebuilt and reinforced in such a way that it resisted the earthquakes of 1985, grade 8 on the Richter scale.
