After several weeks of anticipation, one of the most beloved terraces in Mexico City’s Historic Center is back. Starting this Friday, June 26, the terrace at the Museo del Estanquillo reopens its doors to the public with a completely renovated space where visitors can enjoy the best views of the area.
The reopening comes at a special time for the museum, which is preparing to celebrate two decades of history under the theme “Museo del Estanquillo: 20 Years of History and Collecting.” To welcome its visitors, the space is debuting a new deck and furniture, perfect for relaxing after touring the museum’s exhibitions.
One of the best views of the Historic Center
Located on the upper level of the building, the terrace offers a spectacular panoramic view of some of the most iconic sites in the Historic Center. From here, you can admire the cityscape while discovering details of the buildings and monuments that surround the area.
In addition, the space serves as an urban observatory. Through QR codes distributed throughout the terrace, visitors can learn about the history and interesting facts regarding various points of interest visible from this location.
Coffee, desserts, and a break in the heart of the city
The experience is complemented by Kato Café, a dining option offering hot and cold beverages, snacks, soft drinks, and desserts. Whether you’re stopping by for a morning coffee or taking a break after touring the museum’s galleries, the terrace is the perfect spot to relax right in the heart of the city.
With this renovation, the space reaffirms its status as one of the Historic Center’s best-kept secrets and an excellent option for those looking to experience the city from a different perspective.
