The photographs were captured by Adalberto Ríos Szalay, born in the state of Morelos . The works show Mexico’s architecture, art, gastronomy, and culture.

The photo collection shows a series of both natural and cultural spaces, including the Monarch Butterfly Sanctuary , and the pre-Hispanic city of Teotihuacán .

The expo seeks to start creative dialogues between India and Mexico while exploring exchange opportunities regarding the restoration, preservation, and promotion of UNESCO’s World Heritage Sites , the embassy explained through a press release.
