CENART Mexico City
Art and relaxation
Rafael from Mexico City
The Centro Nacional de las Artes is the perfect spot of the city where you can soak on fine arts. Whether it be painting, dance, theater, cinema or music, here you can find and enjoy all of them.
Very close to the metro station General Anaya on the blue line, this center offers to the visitor's architectural spaces that will make your pupils fall in love, as well as various exhibitions and shows.
Apart from their beautiful buildings, they have a large green area where you can have a picnic or just relax in the company of your loved ones. It's also perfect for having a walk by yourself.
The place also has a cinema that is apart from the CENART but is still a good complement to all the activities offered by this place.
Plan your visit by looking on the website for upcoming events and current exhibitions: most concerts, exhibitions, and films are free, except for some that are mentioned on the site. Enjoy walking through its aisles and gardens while waiting for an event.
This month is the EuroJazz event on the spot, a free must-go festival. Check out on their website and social media for the month schedule and concerts.
