The long boulevard that joins Veracruz City with Boca del Rio boasts the most stunning views of the Gulf of Mexico and Isla de Sacrificios, a small island off the coast. It is also host to the magnificent Carnival of Veracruz, which is also nicknamed the largest bar in the world because of the many people that gather here to chat and drink beer from sunset to the wee hours of the morning.
