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.

Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Monumento y Museo de la Revolucion and Museo Nacional De Arte. Museo Nacional de Antropologia and Museo de Arte Popular will appeal to museum buffs. Venture out of the city with trips to Tula Toltec Archaeological Ruins (in Tula de Allende Municipality), Museo Nacional del Virreinato (in Tepotzotlan) and Tepozteco (in Tepoztlan). There's much more to do: don't miss a visit to Museo Frida Kahlo, step into the grandiose world of Chapultepec Castle, examine the collection at Museo Memoria y Tolerancia, and get outside with Santuario de las Luciernagas.
