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.

Bring the kids along to Museo Nacional de Antropologia and Museo Frida Kahlo. Step out of Mexico City with an excursion to Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5 in San Juan Teotihuacan--about 1h 15 min away. And it doesn't end there: admire the masterpieces at Palacio de Bellas Artes, get in on the family fun at Six Flags Mexico, pause for some serene contemplation at Basilica de Santa Maria de Guadalupe, and get to know the fascinating history of Zocalo.
