Mexico City Huge yes, but with plenty of cosy corners and quirky places 7 11 6 9 14 2 8 Mexico City is fab! Great food, lots of art and culture, lots of people! Believe me, it's perfectly safe! I walk, take public transport, live a normal life! 1 15 5 Feb 2017 Virtuous Bread jauntful.com/VirtuousBread 4 3 10 12 13 ©OpenStreetMap contributors, ©Mapbox, ©Foursquare Mercado de San Juan Farmer's Market 1 The most international food market in the city. Not too big, not too crowded but has the freshest of everything! And there are places to perch and eat too! B&B 2 Opera House Incredible building, wonderful, affordable performances, right down town. For amazing view of the building go to the 6 floor cafe of Sears across the road! 5 Wonderful place to stay. Generous hosts, interesting guests, fantastic, central neighbourhood. Truly. If they don't have room, ask for a recommendation. Mexican 3 Public Art Saturdays only!!!!! A lovely craft market over three squares (and one big building) in ancient San Angel. Other shops, lots of food & museums too. Worth it! Colonia Condesa 6 Neighborhood Condessa is the more genteel cousin of Colonia Roma Norte. Quiet squares, lovely cafes and restaurants and some wonderful B&Bs. Joggers, dogs, baby carriages! Museo Jumex 7 Museum Very cool collection of permanent contemporary art and some wonderful temporary exhibitions. Right next to Soumaya so you can do both in one morning! Museo Frida Kahlo Art Museum 10 Centro Histórico Plaza 11 A must see for Frida fans. However, get there early as it gets very crowded. It's in my neighbourhood of coyoacan so come for the day! My neighbourhood! Old, colonial streets and squares, a lovely covered market, a cathedral! It's a world apart from Mexico City (even though it's in the city!)

Go to one of the "embarcaderos" & hire a boat for 2-3 hours. Float, eat, look, relax. Bosque de Chapultepec Park Overpriced food BUT a must visit to sit in the garden and have the MOST delicious margarita in town. Right next to Diego Rivera's studio. So do both! 14 Chapultepec is a huge park in the city. Go walking, see the museums. Don't miss the Rufino Tomayo museum - great cafe & shop. Avoid the zoo. Crowded & sad. Roma Norte Neighborhood Museo Soumaya 8 Art Museum Plaza Carso, Miguel Hidalgo +52 55 5616 3731 museosoumaya.org Fantastic restaurant, shops, bar with living wall (and bicycle!) and roof bar in an old colonial mansion in the very centre of town. Really - don't miss it. Xochimilco 4 Mexican I like the Soumaya although it has many detractors. Go to the top floor and walk down the spiral walk way and take in several hundred years of art! Efficient!
