Discover San Rafael: Historic, Artistic, and Wonderfully Local
San Rafael is one of Mexico City’s hidden gems—an eclectic neighborhood that blends historic architecture with a thriving arts scene and local flavor.

•⁠ 10 minutes from the trendsetting cafes and boutiques of La Roma
•⁠ ⁠15 minutes from the lush parks and nightlife of La Condesa
