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 Palacio de Bellas Artes. You'll explore and learn at Museo Frida Kahlo and Robert Brady Museum. Change things up with these side-trips from Mexico City: Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5 (in San Juan Teotihuacan) and Archaeological Zone of Xochicalco (in Cuernavaca). There's much more to do: appreciate the extensive heritage of Zocalo, take an in-depth tour of Museo del Templo Mayor, savor the flavors at Food & Drink, and stop by Coyoacan.
