9 days in Mexico City Itinerary

Breathtakingly large, Mexico City provides a home for almost 9 million people living in nearly 1,700 distinct neighborhoods.

Step off the beaten path and head to Murales de Diego Rivera en la Secretaria de Educacion Publica and Piramide de la Serpiente Emplumada. Get out of town with these interesting Mexico City side-trips: Jardines de Mexico (in Jojutla), San Juan Teotihuacan (Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5 & Balloon Rides) and Ex Hacienda de Ixtoluca (in Tlaquiltenango). There's lots more to do: get a new perspective on nature at Museo Nacional de Antropologia, explore the galleries of Museo Frida Kahlo, examine the collection at Museo Memoria y Tolerancia, and learn the secrets of beer at a beer tour and tasting.
