2. Miralto
The panoramic views of downtown, north and west Mexico City from this restaurant are always spectacular, as it is located in the Torre Latinoamericana. Now imagine what the floats, dancers and musicians that will participate in the Day of the Dead Parade on November 2 will look like when you see them from the 37th floor.

3. Majestic Hotel
The Day of the Dead Parade will end at the Zócalo square, so if you want to see it in all its magnitude, an alternative is the Majestic Hotel, a classic meeting point for many on the night of September 15. On its terrace you can enjoy a dish from its wide selection of Mexican specialties.
It is one of the best terraces to watch the Day of the Dead parade.

4. Gran Hotel Mexico City
Another excellent option to watch the parade from above, as it is also located in front of the Zócalo. When you are on its terrace, you should not miss its autumn-inspired menu. It is worth mentioning that this place is also ideal to see the monumental offering of the Zócalo. Run to make your reservation.
📍16 de septiembre 82, Centro Histórico
5. Balcony of the Zócalo
Talking about terraces in the Zócalo and not mentioning this restaurant would make our list incomplete, as its menu is also one of the most interesting in downtown. Here, chef Pepe Salinas proposes a tasting menu that takes advantage of the best seasonal products to create very original dishes. If you just come to watch the parade and have a drink, you will also like it because it has a diverse mixology offer with a Mexican flair.
