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.

You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at San Angel and Ciudad Universitaria. Your inner history buff will appreciate Museo del Templo Mayor and Metropolitan Cathedral (Catedral Metropolitana). Step out of Mexico City with an excursion to Tepozteco in Tepoztlan--about 1h 10 min away. There's still lots to do: admire the masterpieces at Palacio de Bellas Artes, take a stroll through Polanco, make a trip to Museo Frida Kahlo, and get to know the fascinating history of Zocalo.
