The library at UNAM (the Autonomous University of Mexico) is not only home to around 1.5 million books but it is also decorated with this incredible mural by Juan O’Gorman and is made of thousands of tiny, coloured tiles. Son to an Irish father and Mexican mother, O’Gorman was born in Coyoacan in 1905 and his work can be found across the city. . . . . . . #mexico #mexicocity #cdmx #mexicodf #murales #unam #biblioteca #library #tilemural #visitmexico #mexicosorprendente #pasionxmexico #mexigers #instamexico #mextagram #travel #travelwriter #mexicospecialist

This too is Xochimilco, the canals that sit at the south of Mexico’s capital city. Normally associated with colourful boats, a party vibe and micheladas, I got the privilege of seeing the canals at dawn, as the sun rose over the surrounding mountains and as the water was still. What a stunning place, rich in nature, culture and literal roots into the city’s Mesoamerican past. . . . . . . . . #mexico #mexicocity #xochimilco #canals #chinampas #mexica #aztec #nature #natureinthecity #water #reflections #mexicosorprendente #mexigers #instamexico #mextagram #visitmexico #travelwriter #travel #sunrise #worthgettingupfor
