Centro Historico CDMX

Esa página está disponible también en español.

Few neighborhoods anywhere contain as much history, architecture, culture and just plain life—high, low and otherwise—as does Mexico City’s ancient downtown. After some recent tough times, the Centro is reasserting its central place in the urban fabric—and is an essential stop for every LGBT visitor Its streets are jammed with incredible architecture; great new hotels and restaurants join old-schoolers that have been there forever. Not least of all, LGBT nightlife is booming downtown. Calle República de Cuba is the center of gay life downtown and is lined with gay bars and rainbow flags. The neighborhood’s intangible urbanity, seemingly lost in time, is something that LGBT people truly appreciate: the city as a place of surprises and freedom; a pageant of the grand and the humble; the temple of high culture, next door to the dive-y corner bar.
