Paseo de los Héroes

 La Calle del ReloxTambién conocida como Calle del Relox, la calle 2 de Abril (Nombrada así en honor a Porfirio Díaz) Hoy Av. de los Héroes, parecía el escenario perfecto como de set cinematográfico para el rodaje de cintas del Oeste. Era, asimismo, totalmente opuesta en estilo, procedimientos constructivos y materiales a la villa de Bacalar, a tan sólo 40 kilómetros y cinco décadas de distancia; como si se tratara de dos países muy diferentes: Payo Obispo era de madera y zinc e inconfundiblemente caribeña, mientras que Bacalar había sido hecha de piedra y cal, como cualquier otra de España.
English translation: Calle del Relox (Relox Street) Also known as Calle del Relox (Relox Street), Calle 2 de Abril (Abril 2nd Street, named after Porfirio Díaz) is today known as Avenida de los Héroes (Avenue of the Heroes). It once looked like the perfect place for a movie set from the Old West. It was also totally opposed in style, construction procedures and materials to the town of Bacalar, only 40 kilometers and five decades away; as if they were two very different countries: Payo Obispo was



made of wood and zinc and unmistakably Caribbean, while Bacalar had been made of stone and lime, like any other town in Spain.
