Walking in Mexico City

Mexico City's historic centre is built on the ruins of Aztec Tenochtitlan. Its grand squares, leafy neighbourhoods, markets and murals make it one of the great walking cities of the Americas.

Terrain. Mostly flat, at about 2,240 metres. Expect stone paving in the centre, and pace yourself on the first day.

Altitude and air. Some people have trouble breathing at this height, especially if they live near sea level. Air quality is noticeably better in the rainy season, June to September, than in the dry months from November to March.
