The Mexico City Edit | Part I

51 Places to Stay, Eat, and Explore + History + Pinned Google Map

There is a special energy that pulses through the streets of Mexico City. It’s in the smell of sizzling tacos al pastor on a corner at midnight. It’s in the bold strokes of a mural spread across a cracked city wall. It’s in the remains of ancient temples hidden beneath colonial cathedrals. It’s a city that refuses to sit still. It is layered, loud, and alive in the best possible way.

In this guide, I am going to share a brief (and believe it or not, pretty fascinating) history of Mexico City to set the scene before we dive into the good stuff. Then I’ll be sharing my list of recommendations on where to stay, eat, and explore. You’ll also get access to a custom pinned Google Map with all of these spots. So suffice to say, this isn’t going to be a short one. You are in for a treat!
