The Central Library of the National Autonomous University of Mexico offers for visitors two main attractions, both are murals by Mexican XXth century preeminent painters, David Alfaro Siqueiros (1896-1974) and Juan O'Gorman (1905-1982). The mural by Siqueiros, called "El pueblo a la universidad, la universidad al pueblo" (The People for the University and the University for the People), inaugurated in 1956, didn't strike us as very impressive. The one by O'Gorman, known as the "Historical Representation of Culture", finished in 1953, is, however, an amazing feat of creative artistry. Not only it is breathtaking in size and mastery, but it covers the entire building from every side. We would strongly advise you tour it with a guide or do your homework, for the mural is extremely rich in symbols and pictorial representation of various aspects of Mexican history, folklore, pre-Columbian beliefs, and various sociopolitical events of the country.

The central library of UNAM CU has almost any book, if you are a student you can remove them without any problem being your UNAM credential, so this library has a great history for its architecture and materials with which it was built so the history that recounts in its walls, this library is open every day, it is also a very quiet place. All kinds of people can go so much student, tourists and others. La bibliothèque centrale de l'UNAM CU contient presque tous les livres. Si vous êtes étudiant, vous pouvez les supprimer sans aucun problème, car vos identifiants auprès de l'UNAM. raconte dans ses murs, cette bibliothèque est ouverte tous les jours, c’est aussi un endroit très calme. Toutes sortes de gens peuvent aller tant d’étudiants, de touristes et d’autres. La biblioteca central de UNAM CU tiene prácticamente cualquier libro, si eres alumno puedes sacarlos sin problema alguno siendo vigente tu credencial de la UNAM, así mismo tiene una gran historia esta biblioteca por su arquitectura y materiales con los que se construyo así pues la historia que relata en sus muros, esta biblioteca esta abierta todos los días, ademas es un lugar muy tranquilo. Todo tipo de persona puede ir tanto estudiante, turistas y demás. Es un orgullo ser UNIVERSITARIO de la Facultad de Ciencias Politicas & Politécnico..!

We didn’t go inside, but great to photograph and set in a nice campus feel. The campus as a whole is a UNESCO heritage site, but the library is the stand out building (incidentally the easiest to reach from the city centre too). There are campus busses to get around, but be aware they don’t run very frequently (if at all) on weekends during holidays! We ended up walking a lot to see the length of the campus.
