Coyoacán beyond the Casa Azul: art, gardens and quieter rooms
Keep the Frida Kahlo reservation if you have one, then discover watercolours, popular culture and the paths of Viveros. A Coyoacán day also works without a Casa Azul ticket.

Follow your curiosity.
A name, a neighbourhood, a mood. Start somewhere.
