Arts & Culture
Former President Porfirio Diaz commissioned the concert hall and museum in 1904 and hired the Italian architect Adamo Boari, who also built the stunning National Post Office (Correo Mayor) building across the street. Of the murals within, don’t forget to catch Diego Rivera’s “Man, the Controller of the Universe,” on the third floor. The Rockefeller family first commissioned it for the center in New York City, but then took offense at the work’s anticapitalist themes and had it destroyed, so the Mexican artist reproduced it in more detail here.

Ornate, dark-wood interiors harken back to the Porfiriato in this historic bar. Take a break from your Centro Histórico wanderings for a tequila and a delicious botana (snack). Ask the waiter to show you the bullet hole in the ceiling shot during the Revolution by none other than Pancho Villa.
