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.

Museum-lovers will get to explore Museo Nacional de Antropologia and Museo del Templo Mayor. You'll discover tucked-away gems like Murales de Diego Rivera en la Secretaria de Educacion Publica and Memory and Tolerance Museum. Take a break from Mexico City with a short trip to Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5 in San Juan Teotihuacan, about 1h 15 min away. The adventure continues: contemplate the long history of Basilica de Santa Maria de Guadalupe, take in panoramic vistas at Torre Latino, stroll around Alameda Central, and admire the masterpieces at Palacio de Bellas Artes.
