Created entirely from recycled shipping containers, the Container City in Cholula, Mexico is, as the name suggests, a small urban area built entirely from containers. The 4500m2 (48,500sq.ft) urban space, about two hours from Mexico City, has 50 metal containers recycled into hippie stores, bookstores, art galleries, bars, funky restaurants, bakeries, juice bars, plus work and living space.
There is also an entertainment area with ping-pong tables as well as space for just chilling out.
Open Monday to Saturday from 10am-8pm and Sundays 11am-6pm.

It's a great place with a view of the church if you're in the right restaurant.
Restaurants to recommend: Mongos, great noodles w/various choices to add to it; yummy. Also, Othello, a great Italian (real Itian) resturant with brisoula on the menu. Bakery, Hackl, fanatastic. Boutiques and bars; fun place to go and watch the college (UDLAP) crowd.
