Introduction
The house was turned into a museum in 1958; it preserves Kahlo's bedroom, studio and a garden with Mexican plants and a pyramid. Timed tickets sell out days ahead, especially on weekends; the first slot is the quietest. Photography is limited inside. Metro to Coyoacán plus a 10-minute walk, or a taxi, is the easiest way. Combine it with the nearby Diego Rivera-Anahuacalli Museum.
