4 DAYS IN MEXICO CITY: A PERFECT ITINERARY FOR FIRST TIMERS

Mexico City (aka CDMX, Cuidad de Mexico) is the capital of Mexico, usually visited by fewer travelers than more popular Yucatan peninsula. In addition, it »enjoys a reputation« of being very polluted and one of the most dangerous capitals. You know what we say? Bullocks!
