The architecture itself is a piece of art by Teodoro González de León. If you like contemporary art this the place. Extraordinary exhibits. The restaurant below is not expensive and offers a very Mexican variety

Went for Zaha Hadid temporary exposition. Loved the space, the big rooms and the entire area. Ideal for spending a few hours with family and even kids. There is a section for coloring and activities dedicated to them. The entrance to the museum is cash only. There is even a buffet restaurant if you get hungry. Easy to get there with the car, parking is nearby.

This Incredibly inspiring cultural center offered more than I imagined. Knowledgeable staff. Totally affordable. I was in awe throughout the Aei Wei Wei, Jan Hendrix & Melanie Smith show. I could stay there all day and never be bored. I can’t wait to go back. Exciting gift store.

Do not go on weekend ! Nice building. Ok collection but but but... I guess the university does not want people to go on weekend. Here is the very frustating experience: If It is quite easy to go the place, it is almost impossible to get out of the university property on weekends ! All exit are closed except one. Yours to find out which one as they are no sign... I guess the UNAM does not care for its visitors. What a shame. Same comments for the statu park next to the museum... Closed on weekends. UMAN is not keen at sharing.

A beautiful museum that feels like it’s in a completely different place than Mexico City. Nice university campus to walk around after visiting the exhibits! Even with a few exhibits closed/still in preparation while I visited, it was a good experience.

One of my favorite museums of CDMX for contemporary art. The building itself it’s worth going for, but also the exhibitions are usually very well curated and interesting.

Museum is sleek, minimal, stark white. There were a lot of videos playing, I wish there were more installations and physical art to look at.

The museum is like a maze and I really liked that about it. Its ver modern and has all types of contemporary art and exhibits for a great price. Its not very accessible as its far from the city center, but its very worth it if you are nearby.
