Just a stone`s throw from the so called Zocalo, the Placa de la Constitución, which is the main central square of Mexico City, is Tepito, a historic, notorious city district that can be visited as a tourist attraction. With Alfonso`s "Tepito Safari" strangers are guided safely through the borough, that they would not dare to enter by themselves.
The commercialization of Tepito as a tourist product is strongly associated with its negative reputation and its visual representation and the way, they influence each other. Still there is a certain pride among the Tepiteños, the inhabitants of Tepito, or even a collective identity, that seems to defy poverty and the negative image.
