Where the movie "Roma" was filmed
Roma Sur has been put on the map by the Alfonso Cuarón's movie "Roma". Unlike hipster Roma Norte, this neighbourhood has retained much of its authenticity, its streets lined by art-deco or California-style architecture, and small family-run businesses. Stop off at a tiny local tortillería to photograph them making tortillas by hand and then go to nearby Huerto Roma Verde, a green oasis in the middle of this city, with a vegetable garden, bamboo buildings, pottery classes and ecological activities, and pop into Mercado Medellín, known for its South American products and delicious Cuban ice-cream.
