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 a sense of the local culture at Murales de Diego Rivera en la Secretaria de Educacion Publica and Museo de Arte Popular. You'll discover tucked-away gems like Monumento y Museo de la Revolucion and San Angel. Change things up with these side-trips from Mexico City: Archaeological Zone of Xochicalco (in Cuernavaca), Piedra Herrada Sanctuary (in Valle de Bravo) and Tepozteco (in Tepoztlan). The adventure continues: see the interesting displays at Museo Dolores Olmedo, take in panoramic vistas at Torre Latino, test your problem-solving skills at popular escape rooms, and take a stroll through La Condesa.
