Just had a few hours to kill and this area was the meeting point for a taco tour. Thoroughly enjoyed walking around the area. Tons of gays, couples with dogs, bicylists, runners, street musicians all enjoying the gorgeous central park and walkways. Each neighborhood was enjoyable, lots of shops and restaurants.

This area is considered one of the best in CDMX, for living and for staying as tourists. It is the new old, has the character of both. I walked through its streets… yes, nice and clean, but what else! I stayed for 7 nights at Planco…. I like Polanco way better, more prestigious and closer to all the high-end restaurants and shopping centers, and of course the better hotels. The only part of Condesa I was interested in was the section “The Park” where they filmed “Man on Fire” for Denzel Washington. I included some photos of that area.

Great place to stay. There are a lot of shops, cafes, restaurants and bars around the area. We also appreciate the beautiful parks scattered throughout Condesa. Great for first time visitors. The area is safe, very easy going and easy to get to other places in CDMX.
