okay so we are back in Mexico City I'm
here walking through the Condesa
neighborhood this is one of my favorite
neighborhoods and I've never really done
a video just about condesa so I figured
you know it's a beautiful Sunday
afternoon I think today's the day
so guys come this is definitely a hip
neighborhood in Mexico City you might
even call it a hipster neighborhood it's
got a lot of different kinds of food and
it's just got a really special energy to
it like lots of people especially on
weekends lots of people out walking
their dogs running biking it's a really
active place to be and the other thing
you're gonna notice as I walked down
Avenida Amsterdam is just how green
everything is look at all the trees look
at the fountains I mean you're in the
middle of a city of over 20 million
people right now but it still has that
laid-back feel you know
[Music]
so another youtuber he's actually a
friend of mine named John he made a
video where he called condesa like the
Paris of Mexico the Paris of Mexico City
and you know what I don't really agree
with that I've been to Paris and this
place doesn't remind me of Paris I think
it's a lot more colorful here than Paris
to be honest but I can see where the
comparison comes in and one thing I see
that's really similar to Paris is that
those old European cities they're very
walkable people can walk everywhere and
that's one thing I love about Condesa
people are walking everywhere you know
there are cars but it's built with the
pedestrians in mind and it's got one
other very special place that's right in
front of me one of the best places for
dog walking in the city parking my eco
[Music]
what's your favorite thing about life in
Mexico City oh my life I think it the
energy itself
I feel like Mexico I think it's so if I
brakes really high and you feel really
loved what does that mean vibrate really
high well you get some liquid energy you
feel energized and it's not necessarily
the Sun cuz you go to a lot of places
that there are sunny and warm something
about this this place is it's like it's
like it just you're just carriage eyes
where you're from originally New York
City Wow I'm sure there's a lot of
Mexicans watching who are happy to hear
that it's just a beautiful place
isn't this a beautiful park guys I mean
I know there's more to Condesa than just
the park but with all the people walking
around and all the chill places to sit
it's it really epitomizes what is the
best thing about condesa for me
[Music]
and I don't know guys I just loved the
architecture here everything's got its
own style its own color its own life
no two buildings are the same in Condesa
hey look it's the Mexico City tourism
office hey Mexico City tourism if you
like my videos call me I'm waiting
[Music]
I like that the guy is just selling the
plants right on top of the car never
seen that before
I think this is my favorite piece of
artwork in the city so simple what's so
beautiful anyway guys there's a lot more
I could show you that across the street
is another part called Parque españa but
I think I'll end this video right here
so what does Condesa remind me of does
it remind me of Paris or Brooklyn New
York or Amsterdam or any of those cities
that everyone thinks about not really it
reminds me of Mexico City a cool place
to be that I think is just as good as
any of those other cities
[Music]
so if you want a neighborhood that will
give you a new perspective on life in
Mexico and life in Mexico City contest
is a great place to start
[Applause]
as always guys hot Dan from the new
travel see you next time
