Casa de Luna
Fair trade store that offers a beautiful selection of traditional Mexican folk art and an eclectic assortment of jewelry, textiles, Mexican-kitsch, nichos, Day of the Dead images, market bags, masks, milagros, etc. – varied but carefully curated. The upstairs gallery displays Mexican contemporary artwork.

Los Danzantes
Somewhat pricey modern international cuisine with twists on traditional Mexican dishes. They also bottle and sell their own brand of mezcál. Try the seafood-chipotle chili soup, the goat cheese-filled chicken breast with chipotle chili sauce, and, if you can afford the $200 price tag, the escamoles (ant eggs) sol azteca as a starter (small, but can be shared between two people).

Las Nieves de Coyoacán
One of the best sorbets in the city. Try the ones made from exotic fruits: guanábana, zapote, maracuya, tuna (cactus fruit). The coconut-flavored paletas (popsicles) are also a treat.

Parroquia San Juan Bautista
Church of St John the Baptist
One of the oldest churches in Mexico, it was built by Franciscan missionaries between 1522 and 1552. The church is spectacularly beautiful, built in a baroque style and elaborately decorated with interior architectural detail and historic artwork including paintings and sculpture. An interior courtyard and small side chapels offer space for quiet spiritual reflection.
