11 days in Mexico City Itinerary

Breathtakingly large, Mexico City provides a home for almost 9 million people living in nearly 1,700 distinct neighborhoods.

Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5 and Museo del Templo Mayor will appeal to history buffs. Museum-lovers will appreciate Museo Nacional de Antropologia and Museo del Tiempo Tlalpan. Explore the numerous day-trip ideas around Mexico City: Cuernavaca (Archaeological Zone of Xochicalco, Robert Brady Museum, &more). There's still lots to do: don't miss a visit to Museo Frida Kahlo, contemplate the long history of Historic Center (Centro Historico), take in the architecture and atmosphere at Basilica de Santa Maria de Guadalupe, and ponder the world of politics at National Palace (Palacio Nacional).
