uernavaca, which
is
about 45 miles
south of Mexico City, was a home of Cortez who had a palace built
for
himself after the Emperor Charles V gave him Cuernavaca as a fief
and in front of which is the town plaza (zocalo), government buildings
and post office. The Palacio de Cortez is
now
the home of the Cuauhnahuac Museum with a collection of pre-Columbian
and
conquest-era exhibits, plus several superb Diego
Rivera murals. |

The murals were commissioned
by Dwight
Morrow, U.S. ambassador to Mexico from 1927 to 1930. It was in
Cuernavaca
where Marrow's daughter met her future husband and later became Mrs.
Charles
Lindbergh.
It is worth a visit to
the zocolo
near sunset to hear the amazing sound of thousands of birds rousting in
the large trees surrounding the square. It is nearly deafening!
Close to the zocolo is
also a museum
called the Robert Brady
Museum
which has a nice collection of art and folk art collected by
Robert
Brady who used to own the lovely house that is the museum. Not far from
the downtown area is the central market which is worth a look, easy
walking
distance and in the opposite direction on the other end of the zocolo
is
the old Cathedral and a place called Jardin Borda which is a museum and
grounds that was built by an architect named Borda for the famous
couple
Maximiliano and Carlota. The gardens there are worth a look and free on
Sundays.
