15 days in Mexico City Itinerary

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

For shopping fun, head to Polanco or Casa Nayaa Mezcal. Explore hidden gems such as Piedra Herrada Sanctuary and Parque Nacional Grutas de Cacahuamilpa. Change things up with these side-trips from Mexico City: Zona Arqueologica Malinalco (in Malinalco), Mercado Municipal (in Tenancingo) and Cuernavaca (Archaeological Zone of Xochicalco & Canyoning & Rappelling Tours). There's much more to do: take in nature's colorful creations at Jardines de Mexico, don't miss a visit to Virgin of Guadalupe, wander the streets of Ciudad Universitaria, and take in the awesome beauty at Nevado de Toluca.
