Barrios Mágicos of Mexico City

The Barrios Mágicos are twenty-one areas in Mexico City highlighted by the city government to attract tourism; the program is sponsored by the city government and is patterned after the "Pueblos Mágicos" (Magical Towns) program of the Mexican federal government.[1][2] However, one difference is that the city does not require the “barrios” to make improvements in their appearances to be accepted.[1] The first of the barrios were named in 2011 by city

official gazette, Gaceta Oficial del DF.[1] The first to receive its scroll was Santa María Magdalena Atlitic.[4]

The twenty-one neighborhoods include the historic center of

Tacuba, Santa Julia and the historic center of Iztacalco.[5] The city's Secretary of Tourism plans on having thirty such neighborhoods,[1] with areas such as the Los Dinamos ecological reserve nominated.[3]

The neighborhoods have been declared only on paper as neither the city nor the boroughs have the money to promote them.[1] Circa 2011 the program's legality was questioned by Carlo Pizano, then president of the ALDF Tourism Commission, because the designations were made without prior public publication.[4]
