**Tijuana Celebrates the 114th Anniversary of the Mexican Revolution with a Spectacular Parade**
Tijuana marked the 114th anniversary of the Mexican Revolution with an impressive parade attended by approximately 4,000 people. The XXV City Council of Tijuana organized the event, highlighting the city’s vibrant spirit and historical significance.
The city’s mayor, Ismael Burgueño Ruiz, delivered an inspiring inaugural speech, underscoring the historical transition the country is undergoing. “A century later, citizens are demanding change to end neoliberalism, privileges in government, and return power to the people,” he noted, crediting former president Andrés Manuel López Obrador for peaceful societal reform that embraces all citizens.
The parade commenced at 9:30 AM, featuring over 100 contingents that marched from Boulevard Rodolfo Sánchez Taboada to Paseo Centenario. Onlookers, including the mayor and his cabinet, appreciated the spectacle from the municipal palace.
The parade opened with the Municipal Police’s motorcycle units, followed by the National Guard, the General Directorate of Police and Traffic, the Criminal Investigation Unit, the K-9 Unit, and the Youth Police, each showcasing their skills and readiness for emergency situations.
The firefighters dazzled the crowd with a demonstration of their daily duties, extinguishing a staged fire. Their performance was followed by civil protection units, medical teams from the Municipal Directorate of Prevention, Control, and Health, and the Tijuana branch of the Mexican Red Cross, along with the charitable Shriner Club.
