This is the original top floor landing of Mi Pullman, a famous landmark in Chapala. The Mexican art nouveau home was built in 1906 by architect Guillermo de Alba and restored by the author. The only way to get onto the roof was via a ladder. The west facing window was in a terrible state of repair and needed taping up.
