The original Botanical Gardens were established in 1855 and were located on Alice Street on the south-east side of the city.

If you saw the movie Frida, the studio and home of Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo is a must stop on your visit to Mexico City — some of the scenes were filmed here. The complex of buildings is a great example of functional architecture, with its abundance of soft light and free flowing creative atmosphere. The houses are linked with an elevated walkway, representing the separate yet linked lives the two great artists lived. Check for temporary visits before going! Some areas of the house might be closed if there is no exhibit.
