Plaza Juárez, Public square in central Pachuca de Soto, Mexico.
The plaza features a rectangular layout with stone walkways, surrounding benches, mature trees, and a central bronze statue of Benito Juárez.
The plaza was established in the late 19th century during the mining industry expansion in Pachuca, marking the city's economic transformation period.
Each weekend, local families gather at the plaza for traditional music performances, local food vendors, and street artists who display their work.
Located near the city center, Plaza Juárez connects to main bus routes and offers direct access to several government buildings and commercial areas.
The plaza contains 24 lamp posts with ornate metalwork designs that represent different periods of Mexican mining history through their decorative elements.

Hidalgo state sits northeast of Mexico City, connecting volcanic landscapes with more than two thousand years of human settlement. The region extends from high-altitude pine forests to semi-arid canyons, with geological processes having created basalt columns, cave systems with thermal springs, and marble formations. Colonial monasteries from the 16th century stand alongside mining towns that emerged during the Spanish era, while the archaeological site of Tula served as the capital of the Toltec civilization that preceded the Aztec empire. Visitors can walk among the hexagonal basalt columns at Prismas Basálticos, bathe in the warm pools of Grutas de Tolantongo, or view the stone warrior statues at Atlantes de Tula. Mining towns such as Real del Monte preserve their narrow streets and historic mines, while the Aqueduct of Padre Tembleque, a 16th-century UNESCO World Heritage structure, carried water across distances through a series of tall arches. National parks like El Chico protect mountain forests, the Metztitlán Canyon Reserve hosts desert ecosystems, and Atezca Lake offers views of calm water surrounded by forested hills. The combination of natural variety and centuries of history makes Hidalgo a place where each visit reveals both geology and human adaptation to this demanding environment.
