# Luis Barragan's Casa Pedregal: Mexico City Architecture Tour

**Guidekin's take:** Explore Casa Pedregal's house and gardens through its use of volcanic rock, colored walls, water and changing light. Fees, taxes and coffee or tea are included; commentary is available only in English or Spanish. 4.92 from 106 reviews at €97 per person for 1h–2h.

In our comparison: #16 of 29 in Walking Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

Casa Pedregal is one of the key works of Luis Barragán, the only Mexican architect to have won the Pritzker Prize.

He built it on the lava of the Xitle volcano, integrating the volcanic rock into the garden instead of removing it. Colored walls, water mirrors, and a handling of light that changes the entire house throughout the day.

Your guide tours you through the house and gardens, and explains to you
the thought behind every decision: why that wall, that color, that shadow.

**Pickup:** No hotel pickup: everyone meets at the start point
