Had a good meal at El Paseo Inn—like a lot of tourists do—but couldn’t help thinking about how the real histories of Indigenous and Mexican communities often get gentrified to make the place more tourist-friendly.

Exploring the romantic aesthetic physicality of Placita Olvera and the oldest house, Avila Adobe, was amazing as it has a connection to Mexican Culture, Olvera Street’s popular marketplace full of keepsake,and roots to the Gabrieleno-Tongva tribe📍
