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.

Satisfy your inner culture vulture at Museo Nacional de Antropologia and Zocalo. Appreciate the collections at Museo Frida Kahlo and Museo Dolores Olmedo Patino. Step out of Mexico City to go to San Juan Teotihuacan and see Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5, which is approximately 1h 15 min away. There's still lots to do: admire the masterpieces at Palacio de Bellas Artes, see the interesting displays at Museo Soumaya, get a sense of history and politics at National Palace (Palacio Nacional), and wander the streets of Coyoacan.
