Zócalo (or Plaza de la Constitución) in the centre of Mexico City. It has been a gathering place for Mexicans since Aztec times, with a record 210,000 spectators attending a Justin Bieber concert in 2012.

If we assume there are exactly 1 million pieces of the same size, how much does each one weigh? #tomrocksmaths #mexicocity #palaciobellasartes
