🌳 Avenida de los Insurgentes

Avenida de los Insurgentes, usually just called Insurgentes, is the longest avenue in Mexico City, at 28.8 km (17.9 mi). It crosses the city from north to south. The northern end is at Avenida Acueducto de Guadalupe, where it becomes the highway to Pachuca in the state of Hidalgo; the southern end is at Viaducto Tlalpan, where it becomes the highway to Cuernavaca. It was pieced together in the 20th century out of older roads, such as the Camino Nuevo a San Cosme, Avenida Veracruz and the Vía del Centenario.
