13 days in Mexico City Itinerary

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

Do some cultural sightseeing at Historic Center (Centro Historico) and Coyoacan. For shopping fun, head to Polanco or La Plateria del Mercado. Explore Mexico City's surroundings by going to Lagartija Club Mezcal (in Tepoztlan) and Cuernavaca (Robert Brady Museum, Espacio Cultural "Aqui estuvo Zapata", & more). And it doesn't end there: examine the collection at National Museum of Anthropology, admire the masterpieces at Palacio de Bellas Artes, make a trip to Zona Arqueologica Teotihuacan, and take in the architecture and atmosphere at Basilica de Santa Maria de Guadalupe.
