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.

Do some cultural sightseeing at Historic Center (Centro Historico) and Frida Kahlo Museum. Templo Mayor Museum and National Museum of Anthropology (Museo Nacional de Antropologia) will appeal to museum buffs. Venture out of the city with trips to Cuernavaca (Archaeological Zone of Xochicalco & Robert Brady Museum) and Zona Arqueologica Teotihuacan (in San Juan Teotihuacan). There's still lots to do: delve into the distant past at Metropolitan Cathedral (Catedral Metropolitana), explore the world behind art at Palacio de Bellas Artes, examine the collection at Museo Soumaya, and get to know the fascinating history of Zocalo.
