Gabriel, Director of Strategy and Business Development, ANZ and LatAm, shares his top tips for a trip to his home town, Mexico City.<\/em><\/p>\n

Mexico City<\/a>\u00a0is full of culture, energy and everything your senses could possibly ask. Here are my must visit spots.<\/p>\n

Strolling through Z\u00f3calo<\/h2>\n

You have to go to Z\u00f3calo. You just have to. This is the city\u2019s main plaza, located in the historic downtown. It\u2019s also close to the Metropolitan Cathedral and the Plaza de las Tres Culturas, the Plaza of the Three Cultures. You have a beautiful cathedral and an archaeological site all in the same place. You\u2019ll see Aztec, Spanish and the blended cultures all together. It\u2019s very much about walking around and visiting. Sometimes there will be festivals or events in the plaza and a fantastic restaurant nearby is Azul Historico. It serves Mexican cuisine, but not as you know it!<\/p>\n

Exploring Colonia Roma\u00a0and Colonia Condesa<\/h2>\n

These suburbs have transformed over the years from a traditional residential area into a cool bohemian spot full of little restaurants and bars. If hipsters are not your thing, then think it twice as you\u2019ll find your fair share around here. Seafood lovers should definitely go to Contra Mar for traditional Mexican seafood dishes such as ceviche, tostadas y tacos de pescado.<\/p>\n

Eat at the markets of Centro de Coyoacan<\/h2>\n

This is like stepping into a beautiful Colonial town in the middle of Mexico City. The architecture is fascinating and worth a wander. Make sure you\u2019re hungry \u2013 the markets here are a great spot to try traditional Mexican food. The fresh, handmade tortillas . A market is a good spot to try traditional food.\u00a0\u00a0For a fancy meal, try Los Danzantes. \u00a0If you’re interested in art, the nearby Frida Kahlo Museum is definitely worthwhile.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
