22 days in Mexico City Itinerary

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

Explore the numerous day-trip ideas around Mexico City: Xochicalco (in Miacatlan), Cuautla (Museo Vivencia Ferrocarril 279 & Ex Hacienda de Coahuixtla) and Playa La Virgen (in Tequesquitengo). Spend the 23rd (Sat) floating through the air with a balloon tour. Plan for a day of cool, family-friendly fun on the 1st (Mon) at Balneario Campestre Xochitepec. And it doesn't end there: see the interesting displays at Museo Nacional de Antropologia, take in the architecture and atmosphere at Basilica de Santa Maria de Guadalupe, explore the world behind art at Palacio de Bellas Artes, and take a peaceful walk through Bosque de Chapultepec.
