Time to celebrate!
Things To Do
Zócalo
This is the center of Mexico City and where the residing president lives. Here, you can find street vendors and performers everywhere. Definitely a must to check out at least once!
Xochimilco
These are the gondolas of Mexico City. The food and music swims up to you on another boat. The best time to float down the river is in the afternoon or evening to catch the sunset!
Pyramids of Teotihuacan
This is such a beautiful historical landmark just outside of Mexico City. It’s some of the oldest ruins that are still available for people to visit in person. Bring your best walking shoes and expect to be here a full day! Also, there’s an opportunity to do hot air balloons to watch the sunrise or watch the sunset, for an extra cost.
Plaza Garibaldi
This is the heart of Mariachi music! Expect to be serenaded while you’re touring this plaza. There’s also a museum to check out if you’re interested in learning more about its history.
Palacio de Bellas Artes
This is one of the prettiest museums of fine art. It is next to the Zocalo so you can check this one off too if you’re in the historical center of Mexico. It is beautifully lit up at night as well.
Chapultepec Castle
This castle is over 200 yrs old and is such a beautiful historical landmark. It sits on one of the highest hills in the city, sitting over 2,300m above sea level. It gives a beautiful view of Chapultepec park. Expect to be here all day!
Lucha Libre at Arena México
If you’re interested in seeing a Lucha Libre match in Mexico City, the best nights to go are weekends. It costs about $35 a ticket.
