Centro Bars
Bósforo
@gabdrinksbeer
I would argue this is the best mezcal bar in Mexico city. Catch sunset near the national palace and then head here after. There's also an unnamed restaurant next door that promises an amazing meal.

La Bipo
@gabdrinksbeer
Pound Coronas while a DJ blasts reggaeton right next to you. An incredible pregame spot, if that’s your thing.

Pulqueria los Insurgentes
@gabdrinksbeer
This four story club is pretty grunge, but worth visiting to try the pulque smoothies. The flavors are different on every floor!

Grab a jugo (juice) at one of the many stands! I recommend passionfruit (maracuya).

Museums
Skip Frida’s house and do these instead.
Casa Estudio Luis Barragán
@gabdrinksbeer
You must reserve this one ahead of time. So worth the effort—I have a tattoo based on this house.

Museo Anahuacalli
@gabdrinksbeer
This was a massive project directed by Diego Rivera, featuring a variety of indigenous Mexican art. The architecture and views are both stunning!

Museo Casa Estudio Diego Rivera y Frida Kahlo
@gabdrinksbeer
This is just a beautiful space to inhabit—it grants you a true sensation of Diego and Frida's taste in aesthetic and art. You can make reservations a day in advance
