"Palacio Nacional is the seat of the Mexican government (the flag floating atop of it will tip you off), and is one of the most impressive buildings in CDMX, but it’s inside where you’ll find the good stuff, like the murals painted by Diego Rivera. The murals retrace the history of the country and were painted between 1929 and 1951. If muralism is your jam and you want to see more examples of it, head to the Museo Mural Diego Rivera located just beside Alameda Central Park, just a 20-minute walk from the National Palace." - MATADOR_NETWORK
