Highlights

How about a picnic full of Mexican history and culture? We will meet at the National Museum of Art, and from there we will walk to the entrance of the forest. We will start with a guided tour of Chapultepec Castle, where we will talk about muralism, independence, the wars with the US, Maximilian's empire, and in general, the most important modern events in the country. At the end, we will look for our picnic baskets at the main entrance, and we will walk to a quiet place in the forest, a few meters from the lake. There we will have our breakfast, and we will continue talking about the dynamics of the country. Without a doubt, this is a special activity for nature and history lovers.

About Mexico City

Mexico City is a vast, high-altitude capital built over the Aztec city of Tenochtitlan, rich in museums, murals, markets and outstanding food.

The Zócalo, one of the largest squares in the world, is framed by the Metropolitan Cathedral and the National Palace, where Diego Rivera's murals tell the story of Mexico. Beside them, the excavated Templo Mayor reveals the heart of the Aztec capital, and the Palacio de Bellas Artes, with its marble exterior and Art Deco interior, stands a short walk west.

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