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.

Get some historical perspective at Zona Arqueologica Teotihuacan and Museo del Templo Mayor. Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Murales de Diego Rivera en la Secretaria de Educacion Publica and Torre Latino. And it doesn't end there: explore the world behind art at Palacio de Bellas Artes, step into the grandiose world of Chapultepec Castle, see the interesting displays at National Museum of Anthropology, and delve into the distant past at Metropolitan Cathedral (Catedral Metropolitana).
