Immerse yourself in Mexico's cultural history on a half-day tour of the National Museum of Anthropology and Chapultepec Castle. Admire powerful 20th-century murals depicting Mexican history and enjoy spectacular panoramic views of Mexico City from the top of a hill.
We meet at the main entrance of the National Museum of Anthropology, one of the most important museums in Latin America, and learn about the Maya, Mexica and Toltec cultures and how they influenced and contributed to Mexican society. We'll view the museum's many artefacts, including the Piedra del Sol and a replica of a Mayan tomb, and immerse ourselves in Mexico's pre-Columbian heritage.
We continue our visit to the Bosque de Chapultepec, an extensive urban park in the centre of Mexico City that includes the Chapultepec Castle, perched on a hill at 7,628 feet (2,325 m) above sea level. This is one of the largest and most visited urban parks in the Americas! We enter the castle, which served as an imperial palace and presidential residence until 1940, and learn about the country's colonial and imperial history.
Walk through the many halls and rooms of the estate, admiring the many sculptures and paintings of historical figures. See murals by 20th-century Mexican artists, including David Alfaro Siqueiros, depicting the fall of the empire, the revolution and Mexican independence. Walk through the palace gardens and take in the panoramic views of the city.
It is undoubtedly a unique experience to learn about Mexico's history, get to know this fantastic green space and better understand its way of life today. Do not miss it!
