A 4-day march from Cuernavaca to Mexico City's zocalo gathered followers and culminated in perhaps 150,000 demonstrators and others calling for an end to the nation's narco violence.
Protestors carried placards saying "No more blood!" and "We're fed up!"
They want President Calderon to drop his military strategy against the narcos.
"Mexicans can't take more of this fear. This country is overwhelmed by violence as never before," said one marcher.
More than 34,000 people have been killed since 2006.
Besides political activists, the throng included angry electrical workers, women's rights advocates, drum groups and hula-hoop dancers.
