Xochimilco: A Magical Ride on a “Trajinera”
Vibrant colours, enticing aromas and deep history intertwine to give you an unforgettable experience in Xochimilco. Aboard a trajinera, a traditional boat, you'll sail through the canals that were once part of the network of lakes surrounding the great Tenochtitlán. All around you, you'll witness a unique visual show: the chinampas, ancient floating gardens that are still cultivated with care. Feel the vibrant energy of this unique cultural heritage, enjoy the tequila tasting, and try the typical dishes prepared along the way. At the end, visit its traditional craft market.
The bohemian charm of Coyoacán
Don't miss this picturesque area known for its cobbled streets, colonial houses, and bohemian atmosphere. It offers a blend of history, art, and culture, with squares, traditional markets, and charming cafes. In your free time, visit the local market and try traditional Mexican sweets, or if you wish, see the exterior of the Museum of Frida Kahlo (admission not included).
Ciudad Universitaria
Seeing the Rectoría and the University Olympic Stadium in Ciudad Universitaria is an unmissable cultural and historical experience. The Rectoría, with the iconic mural by David Alfaro Siqueiros 'El Pueblo a la Universidad, la Universidad al Pueblo', reflects the social and educational spirit of Mexico. A few steps away, the University Olympic Stadium, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, stands out for its imposing architecture and Diego Rivera's mural 'The University, the Family and Sport in Mexico'. Both sites celebrate the art, history, and heritage of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM).
