Im going on vacation to mexico city. what is the best kept secret tourism excursion in mexico city?

My God great question. I live in Mexico y was born here, i can tell you a few places were to go. 1.-Visit the UNAM, (National University of Mexico) its an enourmus place, with a lot of life and a lot of buildings to visit, there is a great library and a lot of gardens and people. 2.-If you want to eat the best tacos in the world, you must go to the street of Insurgentes and Ricardo Castro, there you turn to youre right, in Ricardo Castro, and two blocks from there, on your left, there is a place called "Taco y etiqueta" great place! 3.-If you want more info feel free to send me an email y can help you, [email protected] 4.- If you are a girl, better!

Travel Yahoo has a good list of things to do, Click below. I recommend Bazaar Sabado in San Angel (south part of th city) on Saturday morning is great for art and crafts. Also as you stand in the zocalo facing the cathedral, the building on the left is the National Pawn Shop--they have some amazing thing in there.

well is many things for to do there so I take a ride in an ATV crossing the mountains of mexico city troughmany mountains and we going to Tepoztlan far of the city and go back again in Morelos state is an SPA with warm volcanic water smell like the inferno but is very interesting.....so if you want more information go to the web page www.atvforestal.com

Definitely take a boat (trajinera) ride at Xochimilco. Spend an afternoon leisurely (unless it's a weekend or holiday) floating along the canals where you can have lunch served to you from ladies preparing them on a grill in their canoe, and mariachis or trios will serenade you. For a fascinating look at Mexico's religious life, check out the Basilica de Guadalupe. You'll find devout pilgrims inching their way across the concrete on their knees to give thanks to the Virgin (be sure to look upon the cloak of St. Juan Diego inside) and then spend time in the beautiful garden. For art, definitely go to Coyoacan and visit the house of Frida Kahlo as well as the Museo de Dolores Olmedo. For night life, listen to the mariachis in Plaza Garibaldi (travel safely here!) or many of the clubs around the historic center.
