Our country is the result of the ancient Mexican culture, enriched by the wisdom of pre-Hispanic populations and the novelties that different foreign migrations have brought.

Therefore, since 2010, traditional Mexican cuisine is part of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in accordance with the resolution approved by the corresponding Intergovernmental Commission at its session in Nairobi, Kenya.

What to do?

Mexico City is a destination with an extraordinary mysticism that revels in its overlapping plurality, folklore, and modernity; everything here is an intermixture, its pre-Hispanic roots present in its foundations, as shown by the Metropolitan Cathedral that sits on top of the pyramid of Tonatiuh.
