As one of the largest city parks in the world, it’s no surprise that Chapultepec is packed full of activities. Enclosed within its vast grounds are the Zoo, and La Feria amusement park.
Centro de Coyoacán
This is one of our favorite neighborhoods. Coyoacán Park is technically two parks, anchored by a stone cathedral. It's a charming bohemian enclave, filled with greenery and cute plazas and surrounded by brightly painted houses. There's a great market here where you can find handmade Mexican art, clothing, jewelry, pottery and more, as well as restaurants, bars and plenty of of ice cream shops surrounding the park.
Floating Gardens of Xochimilco
The World Heritage Site of Xochimilco—an extensive lake and canal system built during Mexico's pre-Hispanic era—is perfect for a leisurely afternoon excursion by boat.
Pyramids of Teotihuacan
The ancient Mesoamerican pyramids of Teotihuacán, about an hour outside Mexico City, is one of those places that blows your mind both historically and architecturally speaking.
