When you’re walking around the zocalo, there are cut-outs or portals where historical items have been exposed and left to view. So cool.

100 per cent take the kids to see the luchadors at Arena Mexico, it’s a highlight of my 7 year old nephews life (he went at 5 and 7). Chapultepec Park, Parque Mexico, and Xochimilco so beautiful! Take them to some fun markets. La cuidadela, roma market, wander through Roma and condesa... get churros at El Moro, and handmade ice cream at La Nevería Roxy.
