The Paseo de los Compositores (Walk of the Composers), located in the Jardín de la Tercera Edad (Garden of the Third Age), pays homage to great figures of Mexican music with bronze busts created by sculptor Octavio Ponzanelli. Among them are Agustín Lara, María Grever, Silvestre Revueltas, and Juventino Rosas, composer of the famous waltz "Over the Waves." It is a peaceful and shaded promenade, ideal for relaxing and enjoying the cultural surroundings. In the same area, a fountain featuring the figure of "Cri-Cri" commemorates the beloved character created by Francisco Gabilondo Soler.
