La Habana's is about ten minutes from the apartment. It's been there for over 70 years. Many of the great mexican and latin american writers used to hang out there. As well, Fidel and Che concocted their Cuban revolution there. Coffee is a must have as well.

Drinks & Nightlife

Tio Pepe's is a traditional cantina, elegant and friendly, casual and easygoing. Great for botanas, or snacks, and cold beer and conversation. Old men playing dominoes beside hipsters hugging half carafes of house wine.

Sightseeing

National gallery of Mexico. Iconic building. Sometimes there are early morning classical music concerts for 30 pesos. Usually a highlighted exhibition is going on. Saw Herbie Hancock play there once, incredible.

Paseo de la Reforma is the biggest street in Mexico, and the most important politically and culturally. A great way to spend an hour or two walking from one end to the other. Many restaurants and entertainment options along the way.

Parks & Nature

One of the biggest parks inside a city in the world. Mexico City can be hectic, however once inside the forest park it seems like you are oddly in a completely natural forest. Can barely hear the traffic outside!! Great for a run, if you run, and wonderful for laying around in the grass with a book.

Getting Around

Very close to the apartment, one block and a half. It will take you north and south as well as east and west. Very convenient.

Shopping

Almost every foreign person must go to La Ciudadela and the Mercado de Artesanias. They usually end up there anyway. Many hand made crafts, rings, pottery, souvenirs etc. Beside the market is the plaza where on Saturday's the old folks dance Danzon. Interesting and enjoyable to sit and watch or take part. You can have drinks and listen to music.
