    This world-class museum is well worth a visit, and admission is a reasonable 100 pesos. The museum's treasure, the Sunstone, is a must-see. If time permits, consider a full-day visit. Meals and storage are available free of charge.

    The Great Temple is located next to the central square. It is a super convenient attraction. The original temple has been destroyed by Spanish colonists. Only the tower base and stone steps remain, but the architecture of that time is still amazing👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

    Mexico City's Constitution Square is the center of the city. It is said that the very simple buildings around the square are where the president's office is located. As long as you register, you can enter the building for a visit. There is also a magnificent church with amazing interior decoration.

    I don't recommend you spend 80 pesos to buy a ticket like we did. There is only one big exhibition hall, which is very deceptive. The rest is closed. It only took ten minutes to visit. If you really want to come on Sunday, you can just come and see the free one.

    A very beautiful and historic cathedral, especially its garden. I really like the ruins of historical buildings and some beautiful statues in the garden.

    My friend told me that the art is only half of the experience, and now I understand. The building itself is really beautiful, lots of beautiful architecture and details. Then the art exhibits are really nice!

    The library bookshelf design is like a tomb raider's space. It's like being in an endless amount of books. I can't imagine that there is such a modern library near the downtown area. The best part is that the library is completely free and open to the public. Tips: If you want to take photos with a SLR camera in the library, you need to register with your passport at the information desk. Since the library is very quiet, please abide by the rules and don't make noise.
