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.

For shopping fun, head to Coyoacan or Oasis Coyoacan. Get outdoors at Bosque de Chapultepec and Canyoning & Rappelling Tours. Get out of town with these interesting Mexico City side-trips: Cuernavaca (Robert Brady Museum & Archaeological Zone of Xochicalco). There's much more to do: examine the collection at Museo Nacional de Antropologia, explore the ancient world of Metropolitan Cathedral (Catedral Metropolitana), appreciate the extensive heritage of Zocalo, and wander the streets of Historic Center (Centro Historico).
