Holidays in Mexico City: five days, done right

Ancient pyramids, the best street food on earth, and neighbourhoods you will not want to leave.

Why Mexico City

It is a city that does not fit into one holiday. Aztec ruins stand next to colonial cathedrals, and a block away the cafés and galleries begin.

What to see

  • Zócalo — the main square and Templo Mayor beside it
  • Teotihuacan — the Pyramids of the Sun and Moon, an hour out
  • Coyoacán — Frida Kahlo's Blue House
  • Chapultepec — the park and the Anthropology Museum

The best window is March to May: dry, and not yet too hot.
