Question

I will be visiting Mexico city and want to know of a good place to visit outside the city. I have been to D.F. before and have been to Puebla, Vera Cruz, and Acapulco. I want to know of another good place to visit besides these places and why?? Please nothing over a 6 hour bus ride. Please help me out thank you =)

Answer 1

Many places. There's:

Popocateptl national park in Puebla

-legendary place of the sleeping woman and the smoking old man.

Xochtlmilco

-floating party boats with mariachi's serenading as they pass.

Chapultepec

-amusment park

You should visit Guanajuto, GTO too. The city is so historic and there's historic tunnels where people used to live, lots of churches, The mummies (they're like the capuchin mummies, but they formed naturally). Theres also the fortress called "La alhondiga" where they hung the heads of revolutionaries in the the 1800's.

My family is near GTO in the state of Jalisco and I've been to DF many times.

Answer 2

Teotihuacan, Xochimilco, UNAM, Puebla and Cholula, Cuernavaca, Tepoztlan (and Tepozteco Pyramid), Taxco (slightly further away), Guanajuato, Toluca, Volcanoes of Popocatepetl and Iztaccihuatl, ...

Answer 3

Tepoztlan, is something else, is about 1 hour away from DF, also Queretaro, two hour aways is the mountain& lake town of Valle de Bravo.

Cuernavaca is a good place too,

Taxco is two hours away.



Oaxaca is like 5 hours away.

Morelia is also 5 hours away and lake patzcuaro is 20 mins from Morelia.

Answer 4

teotihuacan is only an hour away and its fun + interesting

Guanajuato is kiiiinda cool, colonial city nothing you havent seen in puebla already though Cuernavaca is another good choice umm im running out of ideas... I think thats about it.. have fun
