Mexico City is a huge metropolis built in a high basin, with a historic centre, modern business districts and dense residential neighbourhoods extending across the valley. Indigenous, colonial and contemporary layers remain visible throughout. Away from the principal landmarks, residential districts gives way gradually to museums across the wider area. Across the wider area, markets remains closely connected with museums, rather than forming an isolated visitor zone, with historic centre providing an additional point of connection.
Food, museums and markets are exceptional, but the city is best explored by district. Altitude, traffic and distance make focused planning essential. Time spent around markets also brings neighbourhoods into view, adding a different layer to the visit.
