The mural of Miguel Hidalgo in the staircase of the Government building is truly spectacular. Not only is it gigantic but it captures the full ferocity of the start of the Mexican revolution in 1810. Make sure that you also go up one more level to the old Congress chamber and see the totally different second set of murals. Take... More

Nice to be able to move about freely in a Govt (State) institution. Great mural of Hidalgo fighting oppression and slavery on the ceiling when going up the stairs. Well preserved building.

I actually was directed there to find an exhibit on tequila, which I didn't find but the murals alone were worth the visit. It was actually quite calm on a Sunday afternoon with just a few visitors.

This is a lovely (and cool) classically colonial building of stone with a courtyard in the middle. The main attraction for us was the dramatic and historical murals both in the stairway and in the meeting room for the congress. Worth a stop.

What can I say negative but if you dont speack the language or know english even this palce acn be confusing. Translations of English German and Chinese

Surrounded by tons of polica with guns ! Get used to it in Mexico ! They are not overly friendly but they have a job to do You ll often find peaceful protests here too Dont worry about them. Take the time to read a lot of the information posted inside its a beautiful old building !

This place is free to just walk inside and take pictures. The paintings by muralist Orozco are well worth photographing. Some of the inner courtyards have orange trees like those I've seen in Seville, Spain. You can even walk into the congressional debating hall-complete with more murals!!!

What a wonderful gem of a place to keep open to the people and tourist, there's two beautiful murals by Orozco, a museum and your free to walk about the palace.

This was a nice visit. I say average because it was only average. Nothing to really knock your socks off but it was what I expected - average and that was fine.
