Diego Rivera Mural Museum
@aviva
Very small museum. Pretty much one room with one amazing and very large mural. The detail, the symbolism and history behind the characters in this painting is incredible.

Frida Kahlo Museum
@aviva
This is more of a day trip just outside CDMX. It is the town where Frida Kahlo (the most famous Mexican in all likelihood ) grew up. It’s a great museum dedicated to her life and work and super cute small town. Highly recommend!

W Mexico City
@aviva
Standard W hotel. Located in the amazing Polanco neighborhood. Polanco is a high end residential neighborhood. It’s just lovely! Although Polanco is on CDMX proper it is somewhat on the periphery of the city vs the Roma neighborhood
