Unleashed Passion for travel
SAMPLE ITINERARY - OVERVIEW
Since its opening in March 2006, the MAP has become the undisputed benchmark for Mexican folk art, promoting it through permanent, temporary, and traveling exhibitions, as well as workshops for children, artisans, and the general public, competitions, seminars, and external activities. Today, it serves as a magnificent showcase of our roots, traditions, and artistic skills, seeking to enhance their richness and the work of the nearly eight million people involved in artisanal processes for the knowledge and enjoyment of present and future generations. For the public, the MAP is a unique place; a visit is like a journey through the diverse regions of Mexico, each with its own unique natural environments, social environments, customs, traditions, and aesthetics.
We offer a combination of several museums. We believe this is the right combination for you.
Art Deco in Mexico City – Small Groups
The Art Deco period was a key element in Mexican history. Artists often combined this sense of modernity with the country's roots. We'll see monuments, residences, an opera house, and even a bank that illustrate the development of this style in the city. This walking tour is designed for both Art Deco novices and experts who want to understand what makes this Mexican movement so special and unique.
