Museo de la Ciudad de México
Centro Histórico, Mexico City
"I love this place because it’s the perfect fusion of Baroque and contemporary art. Originally the residence of a Marquess, it’s now managed by the local government of Mexico City and showcases work from emerging Mexican and international artists."
Inside the grand downtown palace, you can explore the city’s ongoing evolution, from its origins as the Aztec capital to its present as a modern megalopolis. The museum’s permanent collection displays archaeological finds, colonial-era paintings, and everyday objects used by residents throughout the centuries. Look for temporary exhibits from both Mexican and foreign artists. Also, budget some time to admire the building and its whimsical carved stone mermaid fountain.
