#solotripI’ve almost buttoned up my solo trip bucket list in the U.S. &Mexico. I think it’s time to start planning for Europe next year. Any recommendations for a route? Ideally I’d like to see as many places as I can in 2 weeks. Land in one country, travel by train through as many as I can, and leave from another. Its a nice time going solo

I was amazed when I saw the picture in my WeChat Moments. This library is so cool, with parallel spaces, surreal design, and the feeling of the movie "Inception." It was immediately added to my must-visit list for Mexico City. The full name of the library is Biblioteca Vasconcelos, which is a tribute to the philosopher José Vasconcelos. It is known as the most advanced building of the 21st century, and it is truly amazing to be there! 🚗Transportation: Take an Uber from Constitution Square, about 10 RMB, and it takes about 15 minutes. Notes: 1⃣️If you want to take photos with a camera, you need to leave your passport as a deposit and sign a form. It's free. 2⃣️Please keep quiet when visiting the library.

Restaurante Rosetta 📍Colima 166, Roma Nte., Cuauhtémoc, 06700 Ciudad de México, CDMX, Mexico This restaurant, awarded as one of Latin America’s Top 50 Best Restaurants in 2015 and from 2017 to 2019, is absolutely stunning. The ambiance is beautifully enhanced with cascading greenery inside, and outdoor seating is arranged alongside plants, giving it a dining-in-the-forest vibe. I ordered a refreshing appetizer, followed by the main dish of beef tongue rice. The beef tongue was tender and free of any gaminess, and the rice had absorbed the flavors of the broth, making for a simple yet comforting meal. #100waysoftravel #mexicotrip

Depending on the weather, Jacaranda tree usually starts to bloom in February in Mexico City. It is absolutely stunning, and quite a famous thing to enjoy similar to the experience of blooming Sakura in Japan. There are many places where you can see how around the trees all across Mexico. One of my favorite spots to enjoy lovely purple violet flowers of Jacaranda in Mexico City is at Condesa at Parque Mexico. It is a big park with many paths to walk, and it is surrounded by all beautiful buildings that look awesome behind blooming Jacaranda branches. There are plenty of cafés and street food vendors to grab a snack for your walk. #internationaltravel #100waysoftravel #mexico

The most famous Mexican food in the world is tacos. There are so many taco places in Mexico City, so where should I eat? After much research, I finally found "Güeros". This restaurant was featured in the Netflix show "All About Tacos". As you can see from the photo, the place was packed with local customers, and I was at a loss as to how to order, but since Asians are rare, they brought me a customer who spoke English (who seemed to be a regular customer) and helped me with the staff... I was moved by their kindness. Mexican people are really friendly. It would be better if there was a translation site. And these tacos were, without flattery, the best tacos I've ever eaten~♡ They were so delicious that I want to go to Mexico again to eat them. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Güeros 📍Lorenzo Boturini 4354, Aeronáutica Militar, Venustiano Carranza, 15980 Ciudad de México ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ #gourmettrip #mexicantrip #mexicocity #mexicanfood #mexicangourmettrip #tacos

When moving from the airport to the city, why is there a cable car here? It was so unexpected. They say that in Mexico, there are many people who live on the ridges of mountains, just like in Korea’s Daldongnae and shantytowns. Since these people have to commute to the city, they use cable cars as public transportation in Mexico. The fare is 7 pesos! About 500 won in Korean currency. Since it is a means of transportation for the common people, the fare is cheap. I found out about this later. My curiosity was piqued. I searched for cable car on Google Maps. I headed to the cable car stop closest to my accommodation. There are several cable car stops like bus stops, so I could get off and transfer in the middle. Cable cars, which I only used at tourist sites, are public transportation in Mexico... How creative! Does the government provide paint to every house? They are so colorful and pretty. After climbing the steep road and reaching the top, I saw colorful houses right in front of me. And old cars? It was unrealistic to see cars that looked like toys passing by one after another. It's really interesting how people live differently depending on the terrain and culture.

✔There are three major civilizations in Central and South America: Aztec, Inca, and Maya. The ruins currently existing in Mexico include the Aztec and Mayan civilizations. Teotihuacan means "City of the Gods" in ancient language and was named by the Aztecs when they discovered the ruins. This ancient city, built more than 2,000 years ago, covers an area of ​​about 21 square kilometers and has a population of 200,000. It was once one of the largest cities in the world, but then it perished inexplicably. The center of Teotihuacan is run through by the north-south "Avenue of the Dead". From south to north from the entrance, you will pass through the Temple of the Quetzalcoatl, the Pyramid of the Sun, and the Pyramid of the Moon. The largest and tallest among them is the Pyramid of the Sun. It doesn't look high, but after climbing up, It will make your feet weak haha. This tourist destination named as a United Nations World Cultural Heritage earns Mexico a lot of foreign exchange every year👍 Leaving Teotihuacan, we came to Xochimilco. This waterway was first built by the Aztecs and was later called the Floating Garden. During the colorful cruise, drinks and snacks were gradually sold on the boat. Xochimilco is now listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. When visiting Mexico City, you might as well experience the small town style💖 #teotihuacan #Aztec #xochimilco #pyramid

As a foodie, my first priority when traveling is to explore famous local restaurants. Sanborns is a famous Mexican-Portuguese restaurant that is very popular with locals and tourists. The appearance is a typical Spanish three-story building with various blue and white ceramics. Brick, when you walk in, you will see an open patio and corridor-style garden, which is a unique cave. Because we arrived before eleven o'clock, Sanborns, which is usually full, was rarely empty, so we took the opportunity to enjoy it. Go up to the second floor to feel its beauty from different angles. This historic building in the historic center of Mexico City is said to be a hundred years old. The food is also very authentic. In addition to the typical Mexican burritos, there are also many Portuguese elements such as grilled pork chops, milk tea, etc., which are set against the classic Spanish-Portuguese blue and white dishes, which is full of exotic style. For those who are not used to the Mexican taste, there are also basic styles such as American burgers and lamb stew. If you have the opportunity to come to Mexico City, I highly recommend you to visit this restaurant. I believe it will be worthwhile. ✔Sanborns de los Azulejos Av. Madero 4, Centro Historico, Ciudad de Mexico, 06500 Mexico City #SanbornsdelosAzulejos #mexicocity #mexicofood

This 20-day trip to Mexico and Cuba was probably the most tiring but also the most fulfilling trip I have planned since I started traveling independently. Rumors about the prevalence of drug lords and poor public security made the three girls frightened before setting off. However, after actually visiting this magical country, they just wanted to say "I will be back." Since there are no direct flights to Taiwan, we chose to fly directly to Los Angeles at night. After a few hours of transfer, we actually arrived in Mexico City at 5 a.m. two days later. Just tiredness can no longer be described. People say that the best way to cure jet lag is to play from the moment you land until the sun sets. I can only say that it is really effective, but it is also really tiring, haha Mexico is a colorful and unrestrained city, which can be well reflected in the architecture, food, clothing and paintings. Mexico City in the early morning is even more surprising. Although the urban police with live ammunition are scary, the urban area is actually very safe. We There seemed to be some kind of gathering on the day we arrived. There were more people there after 8 a.m. Mexico uses Spanish as its official language, and traces of Spanish colonization can be seen everywhere in the city. The famous Basilica de Guadalupe almost completely replicates the European form. Even many place names are named after Spanish cities. This is true throughout Central and South America. It is said that the power of culture goes as far as Buddha~ #mexicocity #mexicotrip #cdmx

Mexico City 4 days 3 nights walking map, super comprehensive guide that can be copied I stayed in Mexico City for a week before and after, and I declare that CDMX is my spiritual hometown! There are world-class buildings and museums everywhere, and there are countless places to play and visit. It is a city that will never make people feel bored. I have compiled a super comprehensive guide for 4 days and 3 nights, welcome to refer 🥰 【Day 1 Historic Old Town】 📍Constitution Square - Main Church - National Palace - Temple Mayor Museum - National Art Museum - Palacio Postal - Palace of Art On the first day, you can walk around the old city and check in at several important points. The National Palace has a tour only at specific times every day; the interior of the National Art Museum is very classic and beautiful; the Palace of Art has the best murals; Palacio Postal just pass by and take a look, unfortunately the most beautiful part is now blocked. · 【Day 2 Modern Architecture】 📍Biblioteca Vasconcelo - Casa Gilardi - Casa Estudio Luis Barragán - Museo Suomaya Vasconcelo Library is like a dream space and also like a four-dimensional space in Interstellar. Both casas are works by famous Mexican architect Luis Barragan. Gilardi is currently a residence and must be booked in advance. Estudio can queue on site. Both are super beautiful and can gain a lot of decoration inspiration. The architecture of the Suomaya Museum is very peculiar, and it is the place with the most Rodin collections outside of France. · 【Day 3 Hot Air Balloon Pyramid】 📍Sunrise hot air balloon tour - Teotihuacan Sun and Moon Pyramid - Castillo de Chapultepec It is recommended to take a hot air balloon in CDMX, and the unique scenery floats over the top of the Sun and Moon Pyramid at sunrise, and the price is not too expensive. After coming down, go directly to visit the pyramid. You must find a guide to explain, otherwise it is just watching the excitement. It ends at about 1 o'clock and returns. In the afternoon, you can go to Chapultepec Castle, which has a beautiful palace and you can overlook Reforma Avenue from the terrace. · 【Day 4 Two Heavyweight Museums】 📍Frida Museum - National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico - Shopping in Reforma District - Mercado de Artesanías La Ciudadela The last day is left to my two favorite museums. The Frida Blue House needs to be booked in advance, and must arrive on time. It takes two hours to glance at the Anthropology Museum. It is recommended to do some homework in advance. There is no audio guide or manual explanation on site, you can download the guide app, and the exhibition sign is quite detailed. Afterwards, if you have time, you can go shopping in the Reforma district, there are many cute shops; the handicraft market can also go, all kinds of souvenirs are available. · 【Travel Tips】 - Many museums are closed on Monday, check before you go - Make an appointment as soon as possible, we went on the eve of the Day of the Dead, the number of tourists surged and almost couldn’t make an appointment - Most indoor photography requires additional purchase of permits, prices range from 5 to 50 pesos; Casa Estudio Luis Barragán is the most exaggerated, 500 pesos - The cost of living in CDMX is not cheap, similar to Beijing - We didn’t feel any insecurity when we went, maybe it was also because the police force increased during the festival, but overall it was not as exaggerated as the rumors, it is a normal international metropolis
