The General Emiliano Zapata Salazar monument is generally well-received as a beautiful and representative landmark of Tlaltizapán. Reviewers note that the statue is in good condition, particularly following a recent repainting that corrected a previous pinkish hue to a proper red. While the monument itself is praised for its aesthetic and cultural value, some visitors point out that the surrounding roundabout area needs maintenance, specifically mentioning missing wall sections. There are also mentions of cleanliness issues in the adjacent alleyways, particularly near the gas station. Despite these minor environmental drawbacks, it remains a significant point of interest for those honoring Zapata's legacy. Most visitors find it a worthwhile, quick stop while passing through the area.
