★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Come for the views at the top. It’s $120 pesos. There is currently a blue metal barrier at the base that is really unsightly.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Mexico City’s Revolution Monument is the tallest triumphal arch at 67 meters (Arc de Triomphe in Paris is only 50 meters tall). When construction began in 1910 under the French architect, it was originally intended to be the dome of the upcoming Legislative Palace under Porfirio Díaz, not a revolution monument. It also has faced vandalism from the protests over the past years, so it is presently barricaded and they keep an eye on visitors. Taking the steps all the way to the middle part then finding more steps to get to the very top was indeed exhausting, but the view from the top was rewarding. I celebrated with two double espressos from the middle floor. For some reason, the coffee shop in the bottom floor was closed but not the smaller one in the revolution monument and if you want a panoramic view of Mexico City, this place is one. Pancho Villa’s final resting place is also here but it came without his head since grave robbers stole it.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Word of caution
Do not go here with very young kids out elderly. The stairs are not a joke and not for the those who might not have good balance or you have to carry a kid in your arms. Don't go.
The museum is an additional charge, so we just left. They want you to get s picture taken but we just skipped it.
It would've been much nate if the museum was included.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Was a cool experience since at night the city views are better than in the evening.
You can access to a discount if you’re a student or a professor, it’s a must if you’re in Mexico City.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful views from the inside & out. Lots of history, though the museum was closed on the day I went. One of my favorite monuments in CDMX

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Excelent place to visit with family or alone. Cost is $120 pesos (January 2022). Tour begins at the basement foundation making your way to the very top, where you will find one of the best 360° views of the city. At the top there is a coffee shop and small tables where you can enjoy the view.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great viewing platform and museum. Definitely worth the entry fee. ** Because of the setup along with steep stairs it’s not suitable for young children, the elderly or people with a phobia of heights

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I was surprised on the size of this monument. It is definitely built solid as you walk through it's steel base. It provides a great 360 view of the city surroundings. Might be a challenge if you are elderly due to the tight corners and odd staircases.
