8 days in Mexico City Itinerary

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

Get some historical perspective at Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5 and Museo del Templo Mayor. Escape the urban bustle at Bosque de Chapultepec and The Muddy Boot. Step out of Mexico City to go to Amecameca and see Paso de Cortes, which is approximately 1h 30 min away. There's much more to do: see the interesting displays at Museo Frida Kahlo, take an in-depth tour of Museo Nacional de Antropologia, get to know the fascinating history of Zocalo, and pause for some serene contemplation at Basilica de Santa Maria de Guadalupe.
