Culture in Toluca

An August 2001 trip to Toluca by lobosolo

Toluca, capital city of Estado de Mexico is famous for the food (chorizo, red and green, pambazos, pellizcadas) and the site of the longest portal (arches over a sidewalk) as well as the cosmo vitral designed by Jose Clemente Orozco

  • 2 reviews
The longest portal in the country is said to be here. Here you can find anything from shoes to computers, walk a few meters to the CosmoVitral, a colored lead-glass work designed by Orozco (one of the biggest greenhouses in the state) and lots of good cuisine in restaurants all around the main square.

Attraction

A small but well-mantained property with a different exhibit about once every two months. The museum specialty is the etchings, paintings and serigraphies used for prints in different styles throughout the history of both the country, the state and the city.
