5 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 out of Mexico City to go to San Juan Teotihuacan and see Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5, which is approximately 1h 15 min away. There's still lots to do: get a new perspective on nature at Museo Nacional de Antropologia, delve into the distant past at Museo del Templo Mayor, ponder the world of politics at National Palace, and delve into the lush surroundings at Bosque de Chapultepec.
