Art and Culture in Mexico City

"A mammoth church and an impressive example of colonial architecture, the Catedral Metropolitana is the result of 240 years of construction that started in the middle of the 16th century. There are tours that let you visit the bell towers from where you’ll get an impressive view of Centro Histórico." - MATADOR_NETWORK
