7 days in Mexico City Itinerary

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

Museo Nacional de Antropologia and Palacio de Bellas Artes are good opportunities to explore the local culture. Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5 and Basilica de Santa Maria de Guadalupe will appeal to history buffs. There's still lots to do: get to know the fascinating history of Zocalo, take a stroll through Coyoacan, delve into the distant past at Museo del Templo Mayor, and see the interesting displays at Museo Frida Kahlo.
