Biblioteca de México "Jose Vasconcelos"
At Wearelatams®, we have a different approach to vacationing. While party scenes and all-inclusive drinks at resorts are enjoyable, we believe in empowering our Latams through educational and culturally enriching experiences. Our focus is on advocating for libraries, architectural spaces, art galleries, and authentic local experiences that connect us to our roots and keep us grounded. That’s why we want to highlight the Biblioteca de Mexico “Jose Vasconcelos”. This incredible library, designed by Mexican architects Alberto Kalach and Juan Palomar, is a treasure trove of history and architectural wonders. With a sprawling 38,000 square meter space and a layout plan costing 450 pesos (98 million dollars), it’s a sight to behold. Once you step inside, you’ll be immersed in a literary matrix with 600,000 volumes, a testament to our ancestral roots. The library’s magnificent architectural design has earned it the nickname “ark of human knowledge.” It is crucial for you to fully engage with this ark, as it holds the key to uncovering and safeguarding the wisdom and creativity of those who came before you.
