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 Museo del Templo Mayor. 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: explore the world behind art at Palacio de Bellas Artes, get to know the fascinating history of Historic Center (Centro Historico), admire the striking features of National Palace (Palacio Nacional), and take in the architecture and atmosphere at Basilica de Santa Maria de Guadalupe.
