Palacio de Bellas Artes in Mexico City

Initial planning and construction of this performance space in the old town area of Mexico City began in 1904. But nearly a decade later, little had been built. Structural problems, politics, economics, and eventually the Mexican Revolution brought the project to a standstill. Finally, in 1932, construction resumed with gusto and the palacio opened two years later. Countless operas, ballets, symphonies, and other cultural events have been staged here, but the building itself is also a work of art. With an Art Nouveau exterior and an Art Deco interior, the building is home to significant murals by Mexican artists including Diego Rivera.
