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.

Take a break from the city and head to Bosque de Chapultepec and Zoologico Los Coyotes. Get a sense of the local culture at Museo Nacional de Antropologia and Museo Frida Kahlo. Step out of Mexico City to go to San Juan Teotihuacan and see Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5, which is approximately 1h 15 min away. There's still lots to do: admire the masterpieces at Palacio de Bellas Artes, wander the streets of Historic Center (Centro Historico), delve into the distant past at Museo del Templo Mayor, and look for gifts at Tinta Naranja Urban Gallery.
