Mexico Travel Guide

Mexico City sits at high altitude in a mountain valley, a sprawling capital that pairs colonial-era plazas and world-class museums with some of the best street food anywhere, and serves as the natural gateway to the pyramids at Teotihuacan just outside the city.

Best time to visit

March to May, or October to November, for mild temperatures without summer's heaviest afternoon downpours.
