Discover Details:
National Museum of Anthropology
If you can, bring a water bottle and some snacks – the café there is kinda pricey and crowded.
Don't skip the gift shop; they have unique souvenirs! I found some quality stuff that was more affordable than at other places.
Try to spend some time at the giant Olmec head; it's such a photo op! I wish I had taken more pics there.
Watch out for your belongings; I heard some reviews about pickpockets, and I made sure to keep my bag close.
Soumaya Museum
Frida Kahlo Museum
Temple Major
Don’t miss the small exhibits tucked away off the main paths; some hidden gems that are worth your time and aren’t crowded at all.
I suggest wearing comfy shoes. You’ll be doing a lot of walking on uneven surfaces, and trust me, you’ll want to be comfortable!
Definitely get there early, like around 9 AM, to beat the crowds. It’s way more enjoyable to explore when it’s not so packed!
Bring some water and snacks – the museum can take a while to explore and having your own refreshment will save you from overpriced food options.
Museo de Cera
i think you should check out the interactive exhibits. they were way more fun than i expected and made the whole experience feel special.
I recommend spending some time in the gift shop after! They have unique items that make for cool souvenirs, but be warned: some prices are a bit high.
The Memory and Tolerance Museum
The Museum Papalote
The Museum of Mummies
Mummy Museum
You might want to bring some snacks. There's not much of a cafe, and I found myself getting hungry after a while. Grab something before you go!
National Museum of Art
Keep an eye on their events calendar. I found a fantastic live music performance happening while I was there, which added to the whole experience.
Don't miss the rooftop terrace. It has a stunning view of the city and is a great spot to take a breather from the indoor exhibits.
Bring a small notebook! I found jotting down my thoughts on the artworks helped me remember them better, and it was fun to reflect on later.
