About Mexico City

Mexico City är en enorm huvudstad på hög höjd, byggd över aztekernas Tenochtitlan, rik på museer, muralmålningar, marknader och enastående mat.

Zócalo, ett av världens största torg, ramas in av Metropolitankatedralen och Nationalpalatset, där Diego Riveras muralmålningar berättar Mexikos historia. Intill avslöjar de utgrävda resterna av Templo Mayor den aztekiska huvudstadens hjärta, och Palacio de Bellas Artes, med sin marmoryta och art déco-interiör, ligger en kort promenad västerut.

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