Chimalistac is one of Mexico City's most quietly remarkable neighborhoods: a colonial suburb of volcanic-stone bridges, hidden chapels, centuries-old orchards, and streets named after characters in a nineteenth-century novel. Most visitors never find it. Step into the shoes of Jose Maria Velasco , the celebrated landscape painter, as you wander the alleys of Chimalistac in search of the perfect frame for your next painting. Along the way, you will uncover the neighborhood's layered history, from Carmelite friars and Aztec orchards to a political assassination and a blind pianist in love.
