Finding Frida
Private access to Frida Kahlo's Casa Azul before it opens, a street photography session with a pro content creator, then a trajinera cruise to Xochimilco's Aztec chinampas.
Area
Mexico City and Puebla
Type
Art & Architecture
Step into Frida Kahlo's Casa Azul before the doors open to the public, wandering the studio, gardens and personal collections of one of the 20th Century's most important cultural figures, free from crowds and time constraints. Out in the gardens, teens meet a professional content creator for a street photography session, learning to spot the perfect shot, play with light and tell a whole story in a single frame, then take those skills onto Coyoacán's colourful, chaotic streets. The afternoon floats on from there. Board a traditional trajinera and cruise the canals into Xochimilco, a UNESCO World Heritage Site famed for its Aztec chinampas, fertile floating gardens still farmed today, where flower markets, live mariachi and fresh local flavours fill the air.
