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.

Museo Nacional de Antropologia and Coyoacan are good opportunities to explore the local culture. Step out of Mexico City with an excursion to Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5 in San Juan Teotihuacan--about 1h 15 min away. The adventure continues: explore the world behind art at Palacio de Bellas Artes, explore the galleries of Museo Frida Kahlo, admire the striking features of Metropolitan Cathedral (Catedral Metropolitana), and let your taste buds guide you at a local gastronomic tour.
