The culture in Mexico is very rich, it mixes elements from different periods, from pre-Hispanic and colonial aspects period to modern. The cultural wealth was, moreover, nourished by the roughly 52 indigenous peoples, successors of the prehispanic societies, speaking different languages, of which Nahuatl is the one with a larger number of speakers and whose population is concentrated in the Federal district, Guerrero, Hidalgo, Morelos, San Luis Potosí, Mexico, Puebla and Veracruz. 17.1 of the total indigenous population lives in major cities: Monterrey, Cancun and Guadalajara.

The architecture has also played an important role in history. Mesoamerican civilizations had a great stylistic development and urbanism had big push, as an example are the cities of Teotihuacan and Mexico-Tenochtitlan. With the arrival of the Spaniards new styles, such as baroque and mannerism, in cathedrals and buildings were introduced; Later neoclassicism was introduced. One of the most representative buildings of modernization is the Palacio de Bellas Arts, which includes the Art Nouveau and Art Deco. In modern architecture, we can mention Juan O'Gorman and Luis Barragan, whose work combined religious mysticism and rescue national roots, integrating in his nature.

Among the most important and ancient cultural aspects is painting, and in prehispanic Mexico was present in buildings and codices, and during colonization in convents. In the twentieth century it became world renowned artists who expressed their socially critical work such as muralists David Alfaro Siqueiros, José Clemente Orozco and Diego Rivera. Beside Rivera, but with artistic independence, is Frida Kahlo, whose work is full of feeling and pain, itself being the central theme of his paintings. Other featured artists are José Luis Cuevas, Rufino Tamayo and Francisco Toledo.
