About

Discover Mexico’s Artistic and Historic Side

Begin your journey with a panoramic look at the Siqueiros Cultural Forum, showcasing The March of Humanity, the world’s largest mural by acclaimed artist David Alfaro Siqueiros. Next, see the impressive Mexico Bullring, a landmark with a capacity for 50,000 visitors. Continue to the Insurgentes Theater, known for its mural by Diego Rivera, which highlights beloved Mexican characters like Cantinflas.

Exploring University City

Arrive at University City, a UNESCO World Heritage Site recognized for its remarkable blend of architectural innovation and rich mural art. The campus offers insight into mid-20th-century Mexico, with buildings adorned by renowned muralists. Admire the Olympic Stadium’s mosaics and experience the unique landscape of the Pedregal de San Ángel with its ancient lava gardens.

A Colorful Experience in Xochimilco

Your tour continues to Xochimilco, another UNESCO-listed area famed for its picturesque canals and floating gardens. Step aboard a vibrant Trajinera, the flat-bottomed Aztec boat, and immerse yourself in the lively scenes of locals, mariachis and colorful trajineras gently gliding through lush waterways. This unique water journey offers a glimpse into pre-Hispanic Mexico’s agricultural traditions.

Coyoacan: Colonial Heritage and Artistic Legends

The journey proceeds to the historic neighborhood of Coyoacan, known for its cobblestone avenues, 16th-century mansions and artistic spirit. Walk by elegant colonial homes once lived in by Spanish conquistadors, soak in the atmosphere at small plazas and see the Church of San Juan Bautista, famous for its beautiful paintings by Juan Fabregat. Spend time wandering local streets lined with artisan markets and quaint cafes.

Frida Kahlo’s Blue House

Conclude the day with a visit to the exterior of the renowned Casa Azul, the home of Frida Kahlo. The vivid blue façade and storybook garden are a testament to the legacy of one of Mexico’s most influential artists. Even from outside, the Blue House captures the creativity and personality that mark this historic district.
