Overview

The Art Déco period was key in the history of Mexico; in many cases, artists melted this sense of modernity with the roots of the country.
We are going to see monuments, apartment buildings, an opera house, and even a bank that show how this style developed in the city.

This walking tour is for people who don't really know what exactly art deco is, all the way to experts who would like to know what makes the Mexican movement special and unique.
