In its interior, one can observe a perfect mix of neoclassical, art nouveau, and art deco styles, together with murals by Rufino Tamayo and Diego Rivera. Besides the spaces dedicated to art exhibits, it has an enormous hall where you can enjoy a Mexican Folkloric Dance show on Wednesday and Sunday nights (35 to 60 euros). Seasonal tip: during Christmas season "The Nutcracker" is performed here. Closed on Mondays. Sundays free entrance (rest of the week: 3 euros).]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Mexican masked wrestling. Where else can you see an evil monk wrestle a good nazi??<br>Matches are packed with more thrills, laughs and more fake punches than a bollywood film, and can include midget wresting and 3-on-3 girl action.<br>Lucha is a great afternoon/evening out for kids and adults and has a huge Mexican fanbase. Just be prepred to leave your political correctness at the door and to lose your voice a-whooping and a-hollering.]]></description>

It is one of the main avenues in the city. <br><br>If you are going to vist Reforma you should spend a whole morning.  It has expositions on both sides on the street.  On one side, the cow parade and on the other photographs with different themes that are changed every month.  Right now the theme for the photos is water.  Past themes include the ocean, churches and Mexico in the 1800s.<br>  <br> The cow parade has many different decorated cows all along the street.

This place is home to more than 200 species of animals including a giant panda. The zoo was remodeled during 1992-1994 considering their real habitat, so they do not live in cages but in environmentally enriched spaces. Entrance is free!]]></description>
