20 Best Museums in Mexico City | Condé Nast Traveler

"The Palace of Fine Arts (Palacio de Bellas Artes) is one of the most iconic and grand buildings in the historic center of Mexico City. The architecture alone is worth a visit: the opulent, eye-catching facade has Art Nouveau and Neoclassical influences and the multiple domes are covered in an intricate lattice of iron and Marroti crystal. The interior spaces are overwhelmingly vast: The top floor of the cultural center houses some seriously impressive murals painted by Mexico's most well-known muralists—Diego Rivera, José Clemente Orozco, David Alfaro Siqueiros, and Roberto Montenegro. Elsewhere, there's the National Theater, the National Museum of Architecture, and other museum spaces dedicated to popular and fine-art exhibits." - Susannah Rigg
