6 days in Mexico City Itinerary

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

Step out of the city life by going to Bosque de Chapultepec and Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve. You'll explore and learn at Museo Nacional de Antropologia and Arto Otra. Go for a jaunt from Mexico City to San Juan Teotihuacan to see Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5 about 1h 15 min away. There's lots more to do: browse the exhibits of Museo del Templo Mayor, make a trip to Zocalo, take in the spiritual surroundings of Metropolitan Cathedral (Catedral Metropolitana), and ponder the world of politics at National Palace (Palacio Nacional).

To find reviews, other places to visit, more things to do, and other tourist information, use the Mexico City trip planning site.
