Morisco Kiosk, Neo-Mudéjar kiosk in Santa María la Ribera, Mexico.
The octagonal structure features intricate wrought iron patterns, glass dome panels, and geometric decorations throughout its eight symmetrical sides.
The kiosk represented Mexico at the 1884 New Orleans World's Fair before being relocated to its current location in Santa María la Ribera.
The kiosk combines Spanish architectural influences with Mexican craftsmanship through its neo-Mudéjar design and detailed metalwork patterns.
Visitors can access the kiosk in the Alameda Park of Santa María la Ribera, at the intersection of Dr. Atl and Salvador Miron streets.
The entire structure can be disassembled into transportable panels, which facilitated its multiple relocations throughout Mexican history.
