Overview

Follow this Columbia-trained and homegrown anthropologist as I lead you through my beloved Mexico City's historical center, where layers of history, culture, and art await. Embark on an enchanting walking tour through this vibrant tapestry woven with layers of heritage, culture, and the lively spirit of our nation.

Our journey begins at the iconic Palace of the Fine Arts. Then we'll visit both the must-see and the lesser-known landmarks such as Casa de los Azulejos, the former National Theater, the hidden quicunce, the Palace of Valparaíso, the Metropolitan Cathedral and the Templo Mayor, among others.

Throughout the tour, we encounter the layers of Mexico City's cultural and artistic heritage. From the indigenous to the baroque to the contemporary, each stop on our journey reveals a different facet of the city's identity.

This walking tour is not just a stroll through streets and squares; it's a journey through time, offering a unique glimpse into the rich tapestry of Mexico City's past and present. Join us for an experience celebrating the enduring spirit of one of the world's most dynamic cities, where every corner has a story.

Meeting point

Palacio de Bellas Artes

On arrival

We'll be meeting just outside the main door of the Palacio de Bellas Artes.
NOTE for visitors during fall and winter 2024. The square outside Palacio de Bellas Artes is partially closed due to maintenance. We'll be meeting at the intersection of Juárez Avenue and Eje Central. I'll send you the location anyway if you sign up.

Look for the green flag with a cat.

Things to note

Bring a hat and some water. If you are visiting between June and August bring also an umbrella or raincoat.
