Chapultepec - Polanco |

| Chapultepec Park is the city’s largest garden and recreational center. The first section (the original park) occupies 230 hectares. The second and third sections cover equal ground, respectively. It’s a partly-natural, partly-planned woodland, where there are museums, lakes, theatres, a zoo, cultural centers, a botanic garden, restaurants, amusement parks, cafés and strolling options for all ages. Because of its varied offerings, it receives about 4 million visitors monthly. Polanco has been an exclusive, luxurious residential zone since its beginnings, and has conserved this characteristic over the years. The residential zone has endured, but the neighborhood has been steadily becoming a space for business and commerce. Many of the city’s most exclusive shops, high-end restaurants, jewelers, boutiques and not least of all, large numbers of art galleries, are found in Polanco. Three of Mexico City—and indeed the nation’s—most important museums occupy the zone between Chapultepec Park and the Polanco neighborhood: the National Museum of Anthropology, the Museum of Modern Art and the Rufino Tamayo Art Museum. This area is also home to the largest concentration of foreign embassies. |
