This year's fair is being presented in the Zocalo, Mexico City's largest plaza.

"This plaza today represents what we all desire, which is world peace. This plaza today represents what we all want, which is the brotherhood of all nations," the mayor said during Saturday's opening ceremony.

Officials expect the fair, which runs until June 1, to draw about 70,000 people per day.

The fair gives Mexicans an opportunity to enjoy cultural offerings, food, crafts and different forms of human creativity from around the world, the mayor said.
