Although the museum doesn't contain many of her paintings, it does contain a few rooms dedicated to many of her sketches and personal belongings. I had never seen most of the items on display except for the kitchen and bedrooms which most books feature. There are some nice photo's of Frida and Diego too and many newspaper articles that teach... more

A nice intro to Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera that will probably whet your appetite for more. Kahlo was born in the house that now houses the museum (in the Coyoacan area of Mexico City) and later lived with Diego Rivera there. There are two rooms of Kahlo's paintings as well as several examples from Kahlo's personal art collection including... more

We were surprised by how small the museum was and how few pieces of her own art were displayed. Nontheless, Coyoacan is a beautiful part of town and the house is full of fascinating items from Frida's life. more

This house was so impressive! Just to see where Frida lived and worked was very inspirational to me. One can imagine all the contentious and wonderful things that occured in this lively space. The atmosphere around her home makes for a great day trip. I highly recommend this house. more

The Blue House of modern artist, Frida Kahlo, in the Coyoacan section of Mexico City, is well worth a visit. Interest in Kahlo's work began in the '80s with the publication of Hayden Herrera's biography of the artist, who had been eclipsed by her famous husband, muralist Diego Rivera. Since the biography and the recent film, Frida, her popularity has... more

Once inside the outer walls of Casa Azul, the magical world of Frida Kahlo embraces the curious traveler like a warm fog. There is a sense of order in the huge house borne of years of tradition, from the kitchen filled with hundreds of jarritos in intricate patterns on the walls, to the stairwell landing full of ex-votos collected from... more
