Mexico City is one of the densest cultural capitals on earth: pyramids, world-class museums and a food scene from corner taco stand to starred restaurant.
📅 Suggested days: 4–6
Things to do in Mexico City
Teotihuacán
Pyramids 1h from the city; go early and consider a sunrise balloon ride.
Historic Center & Zócalo
Cathedral, Templo Mayor and Diego Rivera's murals in the National Palace.
Coyoacán & Casa Azul
Frida Kahlo's neighborhood; buy museum tickets online in advance.
Eat in Roma–Condesa
Leafy neighborhoods with the best cafés, mezcalerías and modern cooking.
Best time to go. March to May is dry and warm. The rainy season (June–September) brings short afternoon downpours.
Local tip 🧭 Use Uber or the Metro instead of hailing street taxis, and carry cash for food stalls: many don't take cards.
