9 days in Mexico City Itinerary

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

Visiting Bosque de Chapultepec and Bosque de San Juan de Aragon will get you outdoors. Deepen your sense of the past at sights like Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5 and Chapultepec Castle. Get out of town with these interesting Mexico City side-trips: Cuernavaca (Archaeological Zone of Xochicalco & Robert Brady Museum). There's much more to do: browse the exhibits of Museo Frida Kahlo, ponder the world of politics at National Palace, pause for some serene contemplation at Basilica de Santa Maria de Guadalupe, and tour the pleasant surroundings at Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve.
