Next to London- Mexico City has the most museums of anywhere in the world.

Museums on various subjects but for me I concentrated on the art. Even at that I never got to see all the ones there are.

Below- the ceiling of the Museum of Modern Art.

Below some pieces that caught my eye in that museum.

Olga Costa – La Vendedora de Frutas-(The Fruit Vendor)  1951

Las Dos Fridas (The Two Fridas)-Frida Kahlo 1939

Above- a lithograph by Diego Rivera El Sueno de Los Pobres-1932

While taking a break from the art I looked around me and this is what I saw.

 

 

 

Museo Rufino Tamayo was a bit of a let down as there were very few of his paintings in this vast museum.

The Great Galaxie 1978

Man at The Door 1980

Above-Just one  of the bus terminals in Mexico City with buses leaving from 100 bays for every destination. More like airline terminals.

Above One of the luxury double decker buses that ply the routes between major cities. They put Greyhound to shame.

Clean, quiet and smooth. Seating up and down with two bathrooms below and vending machines.

The buses are made by the likes of Mercedes, MAN, Volvo and Scandia.
