Hidden Gems of Mexico City

Chimalistac is one of Mexico City's most quietly remarkable neighborhoods: a colonial suburb of volcanic-stone bridges, hidden chapels, centuries-old orchards, and streets named after characters in a nineteenth-century novel. Most visitors never find it.

Step into the shoes of Jose Maria Velasco, the celebrated landscape painter, as you wander the alleys of Chimalistac in search of the perfect frame for your next painting. Along the way, you will uncover the neighborhood's layered history, from Carmelite friars and Aztec orchards to a political assassination and a blind pianist in love.

La missione: La tua storia a Mexico City

The year is 1880, and you are Jose Maria Velasco, landscape painter and professor of perspective at the San Carlos Academy of Fine Arts.

Your canvases have captured volcanoes, valleys, and the vast skies of central Mexico.

But something still eludes you: a composition that is intimate rather than grand, layered with time rather than geography.

A colleague has told you about Chimalistac, a colonial suburb tucked into the southern reaches of the city, threaded with rivers, bridges, chapels, and hidden orchards.

People who know it say it feels like a different century.

You have packed your sketchbook and your supplies, and you have come to find the perfect frame.

You did not expect to also lose your bag to a thief.
