Legislative Palace Of San Lázaro
The Legislative Palace of San Lázaro (Spanish: ''Palacio Legislativo de San Lázaro'') is the main seat of the legislative power of the Mexican government, being the permanent meeting place of the Chamber of Deputies, as well as the seat of the whole ''Congress of the Union'', when the Chamber of Deputies convenes in conjunction with the Senate of the Republic. Built in the late 20th century after a 1977 political reform, the complex is located in Mexico City about a mile east of the Zócalo central square, in the Venustiano Carranza borough or district, next to the Palace of Federal Justice.
