National Museum of Mexican Art


NATIONAL MUSEUM OF MEXICAN ART

The National Museum of Mexican Art should really be called the Museum of Mexican Culture.  It is located in the Pilsen section of south Chicago on 19th St, and is well worth a visit.  Mexican history, art and politics are all illustrated beautifully.

We made our second visit there recently coupled with a good lunch in one of the many neighborhood Mexican restaurants.  The South Side Chicago neighborhoods in succession after leaving the loop: first the Greek barrio (Halstead St), then the Italian neighborhood (Taylor St) then the Latino district (18th St)  and lastly Chinatown.
