About Mexico City

Mexico City er en enorm hovedstad i stor højde, bygget over aztekernes Tenochtitlan, rig på museer, vægmalerier, markeder og fremragende mad.

Zócalo, et af verdens største pladser, er indrammet af Metropolitankatedralen og Nationalpaladset, hvor Diego Riveras vægmalerier fortæller Mexicos historie. Ved siden af afslører den udgravede Templo Mayor hjertet af den aztekiske hovedstad, og Palacio de Bellas Artes, med sin marmoryderside og art deco-interiør, ligger en kort gåtur mod vest.

Top-ranked sights in Mexico City: Teotihuacán, Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe, Frida Kahlo Museum (Museo Frida Kahlo).
