The forgotten café where Fidel Castro and Che Guevara used to meet, a
tribute to the city's ghosts, a mammoth in the metro, a cave transformed
into a shrine, an underground parking lot with mosaics dating from 1930,
a Baroque altarpiece made from papier mâché, a village based on the
principles of Thomas More's Utopia, secret masterpieces of colonial art
in rooms only open around two hours a week, the largest roof garden in
Latin America, the photo on which the Oscar statuette is modelled, the
first building in the world faced with a material that can trap urban
smog, a road surface designed for praying as you walk ... Far from the
crowds and the usual clichés, Mexico City is filled with hidden
treasures revealed only to the residents and visitors who leave the
beaten path. An indispensable guide for those who thought they knew the
city well or who would like to discover its many other facets.
