There’s a spot in Mexico City that can help you disconnect from the noise and transport you straight to the tranquility of nature without even leaving the capital. It’s Mystika, an immersive experience featuring Mexico’s natural landscapes that also offers summer vacation discounts.
It’s located on Paseo de la Reforma and has all the immersive technology you need to escape the city’s hustle and bustle for a while. We’ve already visited, so we’ll tell you if it’s worth it and how to get the promotion during these weeks.
What is Mystika, and why is it one of Mexico City’s must-see immersive experiences?
Mystika isn’t a traditional photography exhibition, but rather an immersive experience in Mexico City designed to help you discover the beauty and magic of Mexico’s most breathtaking landscapes.
This exhibition showcases the work of Mexican photographer Pepe Soho (winner of the 2017 World Photography Cup), who, after an accident that completely changed his life, embarked on a journey to document Mexican nature from a spiritual perspective.
What you’ll find here aren’t just photographs, but immersive audiovisual content so impressive that you’ll feel like you’re under a starry sky, deep in the Chiapas jungle, or in the middle of a forest full of monarch butterflies.
During your tour, you’ll see visual effects that look like something out of a fantasy and even hear shamanic music to make your visit an immersive experience in every sense.
These are the rooms you can’t miss
Every corner of this immersive experience will help you connect with yourself and with art, but there are a few specific rooms we suggest you don’t miss, such as the Maya room, where you’ll see a 360° immersive dome that will envelop you among the Mayan ruins of Tulum, the cosmos, and a feathered serpent.
You’ll also love the Liberación room, which pays homage to horses and showcases the sheer grandeur of these animals, and Santuario, a mirror room that projects stunning landscapes
In addition, Mystika has added three new installations that fascinatingly complement the entire experience.
It features Amor Propio (a space to reflect on the words we say to ourselves while looking in the mirror), Pegaso (where hundreds of LED lights will make you feel like you’re inside a dream come true), and Ofrenda (an installation where you can write down your wishes).
Where is Mystika, and how much do tickets cost?
The Mystika experience is located in Torre Cuarzo, on Paseo de la Reforma. It’s open daily from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
Tickets start at 350 pesos, and during summer vacation there will be a “4-for-3” promotion so you can visit the exhibition during these weeks with your favorite people.
