Mexican Cultural Institute, Washington, DC

Here is a link to the website for the MEXICAN CULTURAL INSTITUTE, in Washington, DC.:

http://instituteofmexicodc.org/meetmexico.php

This particular link is for an information resource primarily for school-aged children, but I think you will find it informative for general information about Mexico, and especially if you have young children (or grandchildren) - it will give you something to share about their cultural heritage.

There is also a link for information about the mansion that was formerly used as the Mexican Embassy in Washington, DC. It has some very interesting information about this building. If you ever visit Washington, DC, you should add this place to the list of places to visit.

And this link has a slide show of the interior of the Mansion that hosts many cultural events:

I hope you enjoy this information.
