Mexico City: The Ultimate Travel Guide

Book Synopsis: If you’re visiting Mexico City, this extensive travel guide has all the information you’ll need. Author Mario Favela has lived in this dynamic megacity for over five years. So, you can count on him to tell you what you really need to know when touring the “City of Palaces.” In this comprehensive guide you’ll get in-depth advice on what to see and do: including top sites, the best hotels, amazing restaurants and tasty street food. You’ll learn to travel smart and safely get around like a local as you visit iconic spots like the grand Paseo de la Reforma, the massive Palacio de Bellas Artes, and the elegant Castillo de Chapultepec. You’ll be introduced to dozens of world-class museums, sweeping murals, ancient Aztec ruins, and vibrant bars and cantinas. Following the self-guided walking tours in this book, you’ll explore Mexico City’s prettiest neighborhoods, sprawling urban parks, and important landmarks. What’s more, you’ll get to visit off-the-beaten path areas that most tourists never see, like Tlalpan, Cuicuilco, and UNAM Ciudad Universitaria. Take exciting excursions to lush national forests, the enigmatic pyramids at Teotihuacán and Cholula, or charming colonial towns like Tlaxcala and Taxco. This well-informed guide book is more than just a shallow collection of directions and reviews. It will give you a deep new perspective on one of the world’s greatest cities.
