Lonely Planet review for Casa de la Bola
The Casa de la Bola, on Parque Lira’s east side, was occupied by Mexican gentry from the 1600s until the 1940s, when its last resident, Don Antonio Haghenbeck, chose to restore it as a museum. Each of the interconnected upper-floor rooms is a showcase for Mexican aristocratic tastes, with beautiful painted ceilings, ebony-inlay furniture, alabaster vases, European tapestries and so on. The idyllic rear gardens are interlaced with paths through tropical foliage.
