Anyone been lately? We had a blast on Memorial Day Weekend and can't wait to back
Stayed here (Gran Hotel Ciudad de Mexico) for $133.37/night (the whole city is unbelievably cheap). The hotel was used in a recent James Bond movie.
View from our room
A Rivera right across the street at the national palace
Inside the national palace
From the Baslica de Nuestra Seora de Guadalupe which is the National Shrine of Mexico
We went to the Basilica on a Sunday. I'm not Catholic, but the hats are cool.
Teotihuacan was about an hour drive outside of town. This drive was the only time we really saw true poverty, but the pyramids are excellent.
Previously mentioned poverty on road to the pyramids
View from the restaurant on top of our hotel
Observation deck from Torre Latinoamericana
Typical street near our hotel
Interesting food in one of the markets
Flights from Dallas were >$200.00 and you're there 2 hours. Uber makes traveling in the city really safe and every trip seemed to be $3-$5 with no haggling like you would in a taxi. I'm trying to plan another trip to get to Chapultepec where they have the flag from the Alamo and a ton of other great museums and attractions.
