Palace of Fine Arts: After picking you up at your accommodation, we&rsquo;ll head to the Palace of Fine Arts (Palacio de Bellas Artes) &ndash; Neoclassical and Art Nouveau on the outside, Art Deco on the inside. The building is most famous for its murals by Diego Rivera, Frida Kahlo&rsquo;s notorious ex-husband, as well as being the country&rsquo;s premier venue for the arts.

&ldquo;Would absolutely add this to the must see list if going to Mexico City. The murals are incredible &ndash; all of them including the Riveras. &hellip;And the building itself is unbelievable. Cannot more highly recommend this.&rdquo; &ndash; <a href="https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g150800-d153969-r808353922-Palacio_de_Bellas_Artes-Mexico_City_Central_Mexico_and_Gulf_Coast.html" style="text-decoration:none" target="_blank">Bella, USA</a>

Metropolitan Cathedral: Next, we&rsquo;ll make a quick stop at Palacio Postal, the historic post office known for its grand and eclectic architecture. After taking a few photos, we&rsquo;ll hit the Metropolitan Cathedral, the seat of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Mexico. Located on top of the former sacred Aztec precinct, it was built in sections from 1573 to 1813 in the style of Spain&rsquo;s Gothic masterpieces. Feel free to sit in a while if there is a mass ongoing.

National Palace: Afterwards, we&rsquo;ll go to the National Palace (Palacio Nacional) at the city&rsquo;s main square, the Plaza de la Constituci&oacute;n (El Z&oacute;calo). This site has been home to Mexico&rsquo;s ruling class since the Aztec empire. In fact, much of the current building&rsquo;s materials are from the structure that belonged to Moctezuma II!

&ldquo;There are many reasons to visit the National Palace. First, this is an architectural treasure, an icon of Mexican history and culture. Second, this building houses some of the most beautiful murals ever painted anywhere by anyone. Like the building, they reveal the strength of the Mexican people, their resilience and endurance in the face of oppressive forces. They reveal the beauty of a people in the most spectacular way.&rdquo; &ndash; <a href="https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g150800-d152461-r750750239-National_Palace_Palacio_Nacional-Mexico_City_Central_Mexico_and_Gulf_Coast.html" style="text-decoration:none" target="_blank">Paul, Mexico</a>

Templo Mayor: Finally, we&rsquo;ll head to Templo Mayor &ndash; the main temple of the Mexican people in their capital Tenochtitlan, modern-day Mexico City. We&rsquo;ll then stop by Gran Hotel Ciudad de Mexico &ndash; a landmark Art Nouveau hotel steeped in old world elegance &ndash; before we stroll through one of the major lifelines of CDMX&rsquo;s Downtown: Francisco I. Madero Avenue. Here you can simply absorb the ambiance as you browse through boutiques, bars, and cafes.
