Visiting Mexico City, Mexico


History and culture dominate Mexico's capital city, where you'll find the ruins of Aztec temples, the murals of Diego Rivera and the paintings of Frida Kahlo. Connecting the 21st century to the city's vibrant past, local dancers and drummers perform at the Zócalo, a public plaza surrounded by famous landmarks such as the Metropolitan Cathedral and Palacio Nacional. Chapultepec Park, with its popular anthropology museum, and the ancient canals of Xochimilco offer endless family activities.
