The Casa de las Brujas (Witches’ House), with its red brick Gothic façade and pointy towers evoking witches’ hats, stands as an icon of the Roma neighborhood. Built at the beginning of the 20th century, it has been revived in the Brujas Bar, a corner where Mexican herbalism intertwines with modern mixology. Its evolution reflects the ability to reinvent itself that characterizes the Roma and Condesa neighborhoods, two of the most iconic in Mexico City. Part of their charm lies in how they merge their architectural heritage -with roughly 1,500 listed buildings- with a vibrant and current life that hosts art galleries, cafes, parks, boutiques and innovative restaurants. Its tree-lined streets have inspired film, art, music and literature like no other area of the city, and perhaps it is because of their magnetism, or because they make us feel renewed that these neighborhoods remind us that youth and novelty are continually being rediscovered.
