San Ángel & Plaza San Jacinto
I come for the cobblestones, but I stop at San Jacinto plaza for a darker plaque: the Saint Patrick's Battalion — Irish deserters who fought for Mexico — were hanged here in 1847.
A cobbled colonial village of walled gardens and a 16th-century convent, where American 'San Patricio' deserters were hanged in 1847.
