A tour of 5 centuries of art in Mexico
In 1905, as the celebration of the Centennial of Mexico's Independence approached, President Porfirio Diaz set out to erect a palace that would house the Secretariat of Communications and Transportation and show Mexico and the world the progress that his regime had achieved in terms of Industrial development and communications. Today, this magnificent palace houses the National Museum of Art, which exhibits the most complete and representative collection of Mexican art, from colonial times to the present day.
Through our tour you will know a diversity of paintings and sculptures that will help you understand the importance of art in the political and social life of our country.
