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. And it doesn't end there: admire the masterpieces at Palacio de Bellas Artes, wander the streets of Coyoacan, step into the grandiose world of Chapultepec Castle, and get a sense of history and politics at National Palace (Palacio Nacional).
