Plaza San Jacinto
San Ángel is where I read the colonial house as a type: blind street walls, a carved cantera doorway, a hidden patio behind. Casa del Risco's broken-porcelain fountain is the showpiece.
A colonial village swallowed by the city — cobbled lanes, high garden walls, and stone doorways around a plaza with a tiled-mosaic fountain house. Free.
