5 days in Mexico City Itinerary

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

Visiting Chapultepec Park and Bosque de Chapultepec will get you outdoors. Let the collections at Frida Kahlo Museum and Palacio de Bellas Artes capture your imagination. Change things up with a short trip to Zona Arqueologica Teotihuacan in San Juan Teotihuacan (about 1h 20 min away). Next up on the itinerary: examine the collection at National Museum of Anthropology (Museo Nacional de Antropologia), delve into the distant past at Museo del Templo Mayor, make a trip to Paseo de la Reforma, and steep yourself in history at Basilica de Santa Maria de Guadalupe.
