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.

Satisfy your inner culture vulture at Museo Nacional de Antropologia and Chapultepec Castle. You'll explore and learn at Museo Frida Kahlo and Museo Dolores Olmedo Patino. Change things up with these side-trips from Mexico City: Cuernavaca (Archaeological Zone of Xochicalco & Robert Brady Museum) and Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5 (in San Juan Teotihuacan). There's much more to do: admire the masterpieces at Palacio de Bellas Artes, appreciate the extensive heritage of Zocalo, make a trip to Paseo de la Reforma, and contemplate the long history of Historic Center (Centro Historico).

To find maps, where to stay, ratings, and more tourist information, refer to the Mexico City road trip planning website.

Expect a daytime high around 28°C in February, and nighttime lows around 10°C. Finish your sightseeing early on the 16th (Fri) to allow enough time to travel back home.
