México City (10) |

Comments: This unique building covered in blue ceramic tiles (hence it's popular) name is a major tourist attraction for various reasons: (1) its blue tiles on the façades; (2) its fine tourist Sanborns restaurant and compressed department store; and (3) a famous mural by José Clemente Orozco titled Omniciencia (see: => Mexico City #10c in this series). Additional views: See: => Mexico City #10a; => Mexico City #10b; => Mexico City #10c. |
