Guided Tour of Mexico City
At the indicated time, we'll meet at the flagpole at the main entrance of the National Anthropological Museum, located in the Chapultepec Forest, the largest park in the city. We'll visit the largest museum on the continent to understand the pre-Hispanic origins of Mexico. Here, you will see the famous Sun Stone, commonly known as the Aztec calendar, and uncover the secrets it reveals about the origin of the universe.
After this, we will take public transportation to the historic center of Mexico City, where you'll explore the impressive blend of indigenous and Spanish cultures evident in its streets and architecture.
As we stroll through Alameda Park, the oldest urban park on the American continent, we'll pass significant buildings including the Palace of Fine Arts, the Palacio de Correos, the Palace of Iturbide, and Casa de los Azulejos (House of Tiles).
Next, we'll visit the Templo Mayor Museum, where we'll delve into pre-Hispanic and colonial Mexico by exploring rooms that showcase archaeological remains like the monoliths of Coyolxauhtli and Tlaltecuhtli and the Huey Tzompantli altar.
The tour will conclude near the Plaza de la Constitución after approximately 4.5 hours of exploration.
