26 Best Things to Do in Mexico City, From Frida Kahlo's Home to Storied Pastry Shops | Condé Nast Traveler

"The dance floor at this old-school salon, cloaked in red light, comes alive as locals, tourists, and old-timers twirl and shuffle to the tunes of a live band. Try your hand at salsa, merengue, cumbia, and norteña numbers as waiters in crisp whites with black bow ties circle the room serving liquid courage. There are tables, chairs, and booths, but when the salon is crowded and the band is rocking, everyone is on the dance floor. The excellent band makes it their mission to get everyone out of their chair and onto the dance floor. There's nothing quite so electric as dancing salsa to the sounds of a live trumpet. Try and learn the steps; there's no shame in bad dancing. The pros might even show you a thing or two." - Scarlett Lindeman
