Santa María la Ribera

Explore Santa María la Ribera, the first modern neighborhood and the first major urban development outside the Historic Center. We’ll walk its streets and admire its eclectic architecture while discovering the stories of the people who have shaped the neighborhood’s identity: soccer players, politicians, poets, writers, and other figures who once called it home. We’ll also visit the largest library in Latin America and discover the bohemian, everyday character of one of the city’s most interesting neighborhoods. More than just visiting landmarks, this tour will give you a glimpse into **what life in Mexico City is like beyond the tourist neighborhoods**—its streets, residents, local businesses, and that authentic local atmosphere you’re unlikely to find on conventional tourist routes.
