"A feast of Mexican Folk Art There is so much to see and do in Mexico City , but this place should be on the itinerary of anyone interested in the incredibly varied world of Mexican folk art. The space is spacious and bright, which means the vibrant colors of, well, everything, really pop. Embroidery, papier-mâché figures, ceramics, fantastical wooden alebrijes--the whole country is represented. It makes you realize how rich and diverse Mexico 's artistic traditions are. The museum is not overwhelming (unlike, say, the awesome anthropology museum). It's a nice hour or so, close to the historic center. But give yourself time to browse the gift shop."
