3 days in Mexico City Itinerary

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

Step out of Mexico City with an excursion to Zona Arqueologica Teotihuacan in San Juan Teotihuacan--about 1h 20 min away. There's much more to do: examine the collection at National Museum of Anthropology (Museo Nacional de Antropologia), contemplate the long history of Basilica de Santa Maria de Guadalupe, step into the grandiose world of Chapultepec Castle, and make a trip to Zocalo.
