MEXICO CITY: AN OPINIONATED
GUIDE FOR THE CURIOUS TRAVELER
BY JIM JOHNSTON
With photographs by Nicholas Gilman
As the largest metropolis
on the planet, Mexico City is surely a place where one appreciates
a guiding hand. Written by a resident who knows the city
inside and out, it offers detailed walking tours of the
most interesting areas and recommendations of where to stay,
what to do and where to eat, from authentic market food
to sophisticated Mexican cuisine. this guide fills a gap
in the market: no previous travel book has described, in
a personal way, how to really appreciate this city with
detailed information on how to get around. While intentionally
pared down, the choices of sights, hotels and restaurants
will be of particular interest to the more sophisticated
traveler who wants to get to know Mexican culture.
“This is the guidebook
I want. Wonderfully written, airtight information, organized
in the smartest possible way. I can’t imagine a better
Mexico City guide for these times.”
-Tony Cohan, author of
Mexican Days and On Mexican Time.
