Situated in the centre of Mexico City, Palacio de Bellas Artes, how it is called in Spanish, is a breath-taking building even during the daylight. But when we passed at night, with the red lights, was just even more jaw-dropping. Eventually, it did not used to be illuminated before, but I think you will […]
