Visit: Museo Frida Kahlo, Calle Londres 247 Col. Del Carmen, Mexico City 04100 Mexico
The Casa Azul (Blue House) is Frida Kahlo’s private universe. She spent most of her life here, first with her family and, years later, at Diego Rivera’s side. They hosted a fascinating array of luminaries from Mexico and abroad, drawn by the charisma of both artists.
Frida and Diego wanted to leave her house as a museum for all Mexicans to enjoy. At her death, the couple’s friend, museographer and poet Carlos Pellicer did the exhibition design. Its administration was assigned to a trust, the Fideicomiso de los Museos Diego Rivera y Frida Kahlo, under the central bank, Banco de México, and constituted by Rivera himself in 1957.
Duration: 1 hour
Visit: Museo Diego Rivera Anahuacalli, Calle Museo 150, Mexico City 04620 Mexico
Throughout his life, Diego Rivera assembled an impressive collection of pre-Hispanic pieces. He wanted the building housing them to also be an inhabitable artwork.
In 1941 Diego began the Anahuacalli, a construction blending modern art and the Pre-Columbian aesthetic. To built it, Rivera acquired land in the lava field created by the Xitle volcano. Planning to bequeath it to the Mexican people, he imagined the Anahuacalli as a unique architectural work: a City of the Arts in continuous creation. Today, the Museum houses more than 45,000 pieces, 2,000 on permanent display.

Ticket vouchers never worked . Myself and at least 10 other people couldn't get in and that was just the 2-3pm line, so who knows how many other people were left without entry. I did get a refund with persistent what's app chats, however I missed a highlight of Mexico City that I had planned on for weeks . Also, I was out uber money. I will never trust Viatar again with vacation bookings.

The tour time was punctual. The time slots were great as it controlled the amount of people into the museum. This allowed for you to visit the museum calmly work no crowds. Everything was beautiful and I didn't find the gift shop items to be overpriced. I think they were what you'd expect from a museum.

The museum is wonderful. 5 stars.
Getting tickets was confusing. Emails sent out "here are your tickets" and link to "these are not your tickets".

suas pinturas vibrantes e autorretratos que exploram sua vida, dor e identidade. Sua obra é marcada por elementos surrealistas.
