Wander the old residential district of Coyoacan on the southwest periphery of Mexico City and you will come to a one-story stucco structure at the corner of Londres and Allende Streets. Built like a fortress behind dark blue walls, this is the Museo Frida Kahlo.
The museum has rightly been described as one of the most extraordinary places in Mexico. But be advised, to pass through the wrought iron gates of the Casa Azul—the home of Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera—is to enter a realm of the spirits.
