The Legacy of Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera

Beyond the huge artistic legacy left by Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera (perhaps the most famous artists of Mexico), they left what they both had most in common: their love for the land that saw them being born, their roots, and their culture. Couples are invited to a wonderful journey in time where they will visit three emblematic sites deeply related to these two great Mexican artists of the twentieth century, which are located in the heart of one of the most fascinating and iconic areas of Mexico, Coyoacán.

The first stop on the tour will be the visit to the "Blue House", the house that saw Frida Kahlo born and die. In this place, you can experience part of the feelings that inspired his works, both joy and sadness, courage and suffering. Later, the trip will continue through the Anahuacalli Museum, an emblematic site in which Diego and Frida wanted to build a home as a couple; an idea that could not be carried out, but that, under the great imagination of Diego Rivera, was transformed from a volcanic rock terrain, into a museum that combines the modern construction ideas and the pre-Hispanic roots of Mexico. There you will see some of Diego Rivera's sketches.

Finally, couples will end up in a museum that is of special mention because it was not a place where Frida or Diego lived, but is a place where most of their legacy remains present: Dolores Olmedo Museum, home of a wonderful compilation of Diego Rivera's works and the largest collection in the world of Frida Khalo's paintings (such as "Henry Ford Hospital", "The Broken Column" and "Autoretrato con Changuito", one of Frida Kahlo's most iconic paintings).

Note: The duration of this tour may vary due to traffic and/or weather conditions. Wear comfortable cloths according with the season you are booking the tour. Some objects and paintings of Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera might be borrowed by other museums around the world.
