    I hadn't visited this museum since its renovation in 2013 so it was like seeing it all for the…read morefirst time. From the sleek multi-story lobby to the galleries to the the glass-enclosed cafe as the centerpiece of a fabulous roof garden, the changes to the Amparo are incredible. The permanent collection looks better than ever in well-designed displays that make viewing each piece an engaging experience. Many museums treat the presentation of their collections almost as an afterthought but the Amparo made this a priority of their renovation and it allows the visitor to better understand the cultural richness of this region and the country. Even though the permanent collection's quality is renowned, it was the temporary exhibitions that really impressed me during this visit. Johanna Calle's 'Silentes' took over a gallery on the upper level and, a month after it closed, it still resonates with me. Her work comments on the social challenges in her native Colombia. Here, she depicts images of the fragility of children in her society using wire, cloth, paper, and felt. She includes stacks of photos of children for adoption. One wall-mounted piece was remnants from a little girl's dress: just sleeves and a collar. The fabric disappeared into the canvas. Ms. Calle seems to agonize over the subject matter that is obviously close to her heart and I couldn't help but conclude that she wants the viewer to feel the effort she puts into each work. It was a powerful exhibition: don't forget the children; don't let them become invisible victims. If you simply want to relax, take the glass elevator to the top floor for a drink in the cafe. Is there a better rooftop experience in Puebla? Finally, I never comment on museum gift shops but this one has some high-quality crafts for sale. If you're looking for a gift that is more than the typical souvenir, you may find it here.

    Museo Amparo is one of the city's most comprehensive museums. Theres is a lot of stuff to see, new…read moreand old. There is also a cafe.

    So when planning this trip to Mexico City-the wifey kept saying how she wanted to make sure we went…read moreto some Bellas Artes place that I had never heard of-so on our 1st unplanned day of the trip-I grabbed an Uber and we headed straight for Palacio de Bellas Artes. As soon as I saw the place I could instantly see why she was so excited.This place is a gorgeous majestic building. It's located right next to a very large park,Alameda Central and very close to the Zocalo. It's a very busy part of town-so be prepared for crowds outside of the building. Once inside it's a lot less crowded and this beautiful building is just as beautiful on the inside as it is on the outside. One thing I did not know about this beautiful art museum is that it is also Mexico City's most famous performing arts center as well. My wife told me about a very famous Juan Gabriel concert that was held there in the 90s.Through the years most of the most famous artists in Mexico have performed at Bellas Artes. Today we are here for the art as this is Mexico City's most famous art museum and after walking thru all 4 floors of the museum,one can definitely see why. Diego Rivera's most famous murals are housed in this museum and they are truly breathtaking.I truly felt proud of my Mexican heritage upon seeing these amazing works of art. Jose Clemente Orozco and David Alfaro Siqueiros have many of their most famous pieces at this museum as well. Anyone looking for Frida Kahlo work though will be disappointed as her work is not permanently featured at this museum. Cost for admission to this museum is 95 Pesos Tuesday thru Saturday and free admission for everyone on Sundays.They are closed on Mondays. In closing,I 100% recommend all visitors to the amazing Mexico City's must make Palacio De Bellas Artes a must-visit destination.It is truly a gem of the city and one of the most memorable experiences the city has to offer.

    The museum was OK nothing amazing The inside of the Palacio…read morewasnt impressive neither. The outside was under renovation for FIFA event so it looks horrible It has a lot of modern art works. I personally didn't like it too much.
