Описание: Let's visit Mexcio City, a metropolis that is rich in history, culture, and delicious food! Surprisingly, there are so many interesting places and things to experience in the Mexican capital, so don't dismiss it so soon as just another urban jungle. Be amazed by the historical center, deluge in its tacos, and enjoy live floating music bands in Xochimilco, the venice of Mexico!

Places we visited:
-Zócalo: the main square of Mexico City, one of the largest in the world!
-Catedral Metropolitana: a massive cathedral by the main square, the largest in the Americas!
-Templo Mayor: the archeological site with ruins of Templo Mayor from the Aztec civilization, located right next to the cathedral
-Zócalo underground station: See how Mexico City looked like when it was still called Tenochtitlan from the several models of the historical center through time
-Avenida Madero: the main pedestrian street in the city center
-Torre Latinoamericana and Palacio de Bellas Artes: some iconic landmarks of Mexico City
-Xochimilco: the area known as the Venice of Mexico due to its canals, where you can ride the Trajineras boats while getting food from other boats and listen to various live music from the musicians on other boats, only in Mexico City!
-Frida Kahlo museum: the Blue House (Casa Azul) where the great Mexican artist used to live has been converted into a museum, which is one of the most visited in Mexico City
-Teotihuacán: the archeological site just outside of Mexico City with large pyramids and ancient plazas and temples, a must visit on a day trip

Tips for your visit:
-The best foreign currency exchange rate in the country can be found in the airport of Mexico City, Benito Juárez.
-There are many boat embarkation points around Xochimilco. We took the boat from Embarcadero Nuevo Nativitas, one of the bigger ones with plenty of facilities including many food stalls.
-Book your ticket in advance for a visit to Frida Kahlo museum.
-There are frequent bus rides from the Northern Bus Terminal (Terminal Central del Norte) to Teotihuacán. Set aside a full day to explore Teotihuacán.
