  • This is a must visit in CDMX. The eclectic collection is extraordinary. I was shocked by the quality of the art here and building is equally awesome.

  • Gorgeous building and space! Personally more into contemporary art, so didn’t particularly enjoy the art here, however the space itself is phenomenal and worth checking out. The curved walls as you walk to the upper levels are beautiful, and the top floor has a bright naturally lit room filled with sculptures.
  • The building itself has a very unique and modern design. There's no entrance fee but once you go in, you can't bring any liquid inside and if you are carrying a big bag then you must leave it at their storage area. The inside is massive. The collections are insanely huge from all around the world. I don't remember how many levels the building was, but it think it was seven floors high. The top floor had all the statues , more than a hundred I think. The building itself is next the mall.
