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 with an excursion to Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5 in San Juan Teotihuacan--about 1h 15 min away. Next up on the itinerary: get engrossed in the history at Museo Nacional de Antropologia, steep yourself in history at Basilica de Santa Maria de Guadalupe, see the interesting displays at Museo Frida Kahlo, and wander the streets of Historic Center (Centro Historico).
