6 Must Stops In Mexico City

In This Article:

Mexico is one of the most popular destinations in the world. Its stunning beaches are the main attraction, which is why everyone loves Cancun or Los Cabos, but the country has many more things to offer than these landscapes. For instance, Mexico City is one of the most underrated spots in the country. The big city is all about culture, cuisine, fashion, and partying.

These are some of the must stops everyone has to make in Mexico City.

Chapultepec Castle

Imagine central park, but with a castle in the middle of it. This palace is located in the Chapultepec Park and it overlooks Mexico City's skyline.

Soumaya Museum

This museum is one of the city's landmarks. The best thing about it: it's free!

Avenida Masaryk

Avenida Masaryk is the equivalent of Fifth Avenue in New York City. You'll find most of the high-end stores, and dozens of places to eat. If you're not into Mexican food, there are many options available, like Brazilian or Asian cuisine.

Palacio de Bellas Artes

This palace is located in the heart of the city and in my opinion it is the core of the Mexican arts. Music, dance or art, you name it; this place has it all. Their schedule varies, but Diego Rivera's murals (one of Mexico's most prominent artists) are exhibited all year.

Coyoacan

Coyoacan is a very authentic and unique neighborhood. Frida Kahlo's house is located here, also known as La Casa Azul, which is very well preserved and exhibits some of her most important artwork.

Arcos Bosques

Mall by day and nightclub by night. Arcos Bosques has become one of the city's preferred spots to party. It has two different nightclubs, two regular bars, and an additional bar with live music.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
