Mexico City
Mexico City captivates with its mix of ancient history, colonial grandeur and contemporary flair, offering world-class museums, fine dining and an energy that rewards both first-time and returning travellers.
Built on the ruins of Tenochtitlán, the Aztec capital founded in 1325, Mexico City is one of the world’s mega-cities, where centuries overlap in the most compelling ways. In the Zócalo, the heart of the modern city, excavated Aztec ruins sit alongside grand colonial buildings, a vivid reminder of the city’s layered past. Beyond, Teotihuacán – the country’s largest pre-Hispanic site – stands as a testament to an even earlier civilisation, its Pyramids of the Sun and Moon best experienced at dawn with a private guide.
Culture flourishes throughout the city, from the Frida Kahlo Museum in Coyoacán to the world-renowned National Museum of Anthropology. The Palacio de Bellas Artes, with its Art Nouveau and Art Deco architecture, hosts performances and houses murals by Mexico’s great artists.
Alongside this cultural depth, visitors discover a cosmopolitan dining scene, luxury hotels with exemplary service, leafy neighbourhoods perfect for strolling, and a climate that makes exploring a true pleasure year-round.
