Much-maligned
Mexico City is cleaning up its act these days. Revamped public spaces
are springing back to life, the culinary scene is exploding and a
cultural renaissance is flourishing. On top of all that, by largely
managing to distance itself from the drug war, the nation’s capital
remains a safe haven of sorts.
Remember
that Mexico City is, and has always been, the sun in the Mexican solar
system. A stroll through the buzzing downtown area reveals the
capital’s storied history, from its pre-Hispanic underpinnings and
colonial-era splendor to its contemporary edge. Organized chaos rules in
this high-octane megalopolis, yet rest assured that the city offers
plenty of escape valves in the way of old-school cantinas, intriguing
museums, dramatic murals and boating excursions along ancient canals.
With all that and so much more going on, you just might be swayed to
scrap those beach plans.
