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 Historic Center (Centro Historico) will appeal to history buffs. Take a break from the city and head to Bosque de Chapultepec and Bosque Esmeralda. You'll find plenty of places to visit near Mexico City: Robert Brady Museum (in Cuernavaca) and Puebla (Church of Santo Domingo (Iglesia de Santo Domingo), Rosary Chapel (Capilla del Rosario), &more). There's much more to do: see the interesting displays at Museo Frida Kahlo, view the masterpieces at Arto Otra, explore the world behind art at Palacio de Bellas Artes, and delve into the distant past at Metropolitan Cathedral (Catedral Metropolitana).
