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.

Get outdoors at Playa La Virgen and Bosque de Chapultepec. Get some historical perspective at Zona Arqueologica Malinalco and House of Tiles (Casa de los Azulejos). Venture out of the city with trips to Jardines de Mexico (in Jojutla), Xochicalco (in Miacatlan) and Archaeological Zone of Xochicalco (in Cuernavaca). There's lots more to do: see the interesting displays at Museo Memoria y Tolerancia, appreciate the history behind Monumento y Museo de la Revolucion, admire the masterpieces at Museo Mural Diego Rivera, and admire the landmark architecture of Gran Hotel Ciudad de Mexico.
