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 a sense of the local culture at Museo Nacional de Antropologia and Palacio de Bellas Artes. Step off the beaten path and head to Murales de Diego Rivera en la Secretaria de Educacion Publica and Torre Latino. Step out of Mexico City to go to San Juan Teotihuacan and see Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5, which is approximately 1h 15 min away. There's much more to do: make a trip to Zocalo, delve into the distant past at Museo del Templo Mayor, take in the spiritual surroundings of Metropolitan Cathedral (Catedral Metropolitana), and browse the exhibits of Museo Frida Kahlo.

To find maps, traveler tips, where to stay, and tourist information, go to the Mexico City trip itinerary planning site.

In December, plan for daily highs up to °C, and evening lows to °C. Finish up your sightseeing early on the 15th (Sat) so you can travel back home.
