Pictures - The Hood









These are just some photos of the `Hood`around Azueta Street. Bear in mind, some of the buildings look positively ancient, and terribly poor and run down. Mexicans quite often don`t care about the outside of their homes, just what`s on the interior. Some of these houses are lovely when you peek inside the windows or through the interior courtyards. Someday soon, however, I will send alongs pictures of some homes where as much attention has been paid to the exterior as well as the interior.

  1. Hello Again
    I love your pics they are so colourful and interesting ! The market looks alot like our Covent garden market in London what a surprise.No wonder you go there often, with so many food items to choose it must be hard to decide just what to buy for your dinner.The city looks very old are there some newer housing areas?What alot of cars on the street is that because there are no garages? It's so fun to see how other people live thanks for giving us a glimpse of yours.
