    One of the most stunning architectural buildings I've seen. Definitely my favorite of Mexico City. Sears building across the street offers a great picture spot at the top.

    Free for everyone on Sundays (although you still have to acquire a paper “ticket” at the window). Highlight is the Diego Rivera mural featuring Stalin

    Definitely one of the most beautiful buildings in Mexico City. It constantly presents very good exhibitions and concerts that are worth it. A historic monument with lots of good things to offer.

    The outside is more amazing than the inside, even so, it is worth going on Sunday when the entrance is free.

    The best and most renowned Mexican artists and muralists are gathered in this cultural enclosure. There are also temporary exhibits and continuous cultural events. Visit the Digital Museum.

    It's a "must" place if you are in Mexico City, either if you bought tickets for a show or just want to walk around there and take pictures. Sunsets are nice over there!

    Beautiful gold plated dome - best if you look it from above Latino Americana tower. At night, there is music and the front of the building illuminates.

    "A concert hall and an arts center, it houses some of Mexico's finest murals and the Art Deco interior is worth seeing alone."
