8 days in Mexico City Itinerary

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

Explore Mexico City's surroundings by going to Cuernavaca (Robert Brady Museum, Spanish Language Institute - Day Course, & more) and Zona Arqueologica Teotihuacan (in San Juan Teotihuacan). There's still lots to do: see the interesting displays at National Museum of Anthropology (Museo Nacional de Antropologia), explore the ancient world of Museo del Templo Mayor, steep yourself in history at Basilica de Santa Maria de Guadalupe, and get to know the fascinating history of Historic Center (Centro Historico).
