South of Mexico City - Architour

Although most visitors stick to the interesting historical center of the city, the southern part of the city is equally impressive, and can be perfectly explored by bike. This tour takes you through 2000 years of culture and architecture. From the first prehispanic settlements around the lake of the Valley of Mexico, to the colonial centers of Coyoacán, San Angel and Tlalpan, that were once an escape haven for the urban elite. You will equally visit modernist highlights of the 20th century: from a masterpiece of architect Luis Barragán, to the UNAM university campus, declared UNESCO World Heritage in 2007.
