An absolute top pick for any traveller.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Frida Kahlo Museum<\/strong> \u2013 Frida Kahlo&#8217;s home and studio turned into a museum (also known as the Casa Azul). Pre-booking tickets is highly recommended as this is a small space that limits its daily visitors.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fine Arts Museum (Palacio de Bella Artes)<\/strong> \u2013 Stunning building in the historical centre of the city housing important works of fine art.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Soumaya Museum<\/strong> \u2013 This architecturally unique museum can be found in Polanco and is free to visit. It offers 5 floors of sculptures, paintings, and more. Keep in mind that you&#8217;ll probably have to wait in line to get in, but there&#8217;s a nice array of food\/drink vendors nearby to make the wait more enjoyable.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Anahuacalli Museum<\/strong> \u2013 Located to the south of Coyo\u00e1can, this museum is the work of Diego Rivera and showcases his collection of pre-Hispanic work alongside contemporary pieces. The building itself is also a work of art and was inspired by historical Mesoamerican structures.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;469684&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Head back in time&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|text_align:left&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; el_id=&#8221;head_back_in_time&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>During any trip to Mexico City, it&#8217;s pretty much required that you take part of a day to head just out of town to <strong>visit Teotihucan<\/strong>, a massive archaeological complex that used to be a pre-Columbian city.<\/p>\n<p>While visiting the site, you can marvel at the incredible structures, learn about the history of the area, and, if you&#8217;re lucky (and not afraid of heights), you can climb the Pyramid of the Moon.<\/p>\n<p>Our recommendation is to <strong>visit Teotihuacan in the morning before it gets hot and busy around midday<\/strong>. The best way to visit is to book a tour since this not only gets you a ride to and from the complex, but it also gives you a knowledgeable tour guide to help you understand what you&#8217;re seeing.<\/p>\n<p>For the more adventurous, another popular option is to take a <strong>sunrise hot air balloon ride<\/strong> to take it all in from above.
