The Luis Barragán House and Studio, located in the west of Mexico City, was the residence of architect Luis Barragán in the years following the Second World War. Built in 1947, the house reflects Barragán’s design style during this period and remained his residence until his death in 1988.

Mexico City
I am now on my way to ‘ El Zocalo’, right in the heart of the old city where the Aztecs first settled and afterwards the Spaniards built churches and palaces using the existing stones that were part of the Aztec pyramids . The ride is absolutely fun, At times I am under the impression to be in Cuba. The old cars, the wedding avenue, the textured baroque buildings, the gold and jewelry vendors.
have just landed at Benito Juarez International airport in Mexico City .
This time I have decided to avoid ‘chain’ hotels and explore more of an authentic atmosphere of town ,connecting with unfamiliar flavors, ) . I want to be able to experience a new sensation in a destination with strong cultural roots that preserves a local feel in the era of globalization : after all it is not a secret that Mexico City has become a cosmopolitan metropolis that is bustling with new venues and «avant garde» cultural events.
