Are you looking for a unique cultural travel experience? Bring that Mexico flag and visit Mexico City, one of the biggest and most populated cities of the world. The capital city of Mexico, Mexico City, is not only a cultural hotspot, it also has a lot of historical landmarks and parks all located in a sophisticated and urbane area. If you are tired of going to the beaches and would like to experience a different Mexico this time, then Mexico City is the best place for you.

Here are the best tourist spots you can visit in Mexico City:

o The Chapultepec Park is one of the largest parks in Mexico City. Stroll through this historical site and experience the culture of the Aztecs, where Toltec leader Huemec actually hanged himself. Even with the park's macabre past, you will still be able to view elegant cedar trees, enjoy the botanical garden, and picnic amongst the beautiful greenery.

o Mexico has largely a Roman Catholic history. If you want to experience Mexican culture, do not miss visiting the Basilicas of Guadalupe. These are pilgrimage churches, and they have an Old Basilica, as well as a New Basilica. Since the Old Basilica has already sunk, as it is located on swamp grounds, they built a New Basilica to replace it. However, the ancient structure is still standing, and both churches make for an interesting contrast. A museum can also be found here, where 17th century religious artifacts are housed.

o Another park with a lot of history but is still a great place for relaxation is Parque Alameda Central. This park was created in the late 16th century, and over the centuries, has been used for different purposes--even being a marketplace at one point. With its majestic trees, gorgeous fountains, and one-of-a-kind sculptures, Parque Alameda Central is a favorite of travelers and locals alike. If you want to catch the spirit of Mexico City, this is the best place to do it.

o Journey to Plaza de Santa Domingo and see the exquisite architecture of this city square. With a charming Spanish vibe and authentic colonial design, this place has indeed a lot of history in it. Two monuments, one of Josefa Ortiz de Dominguez, who was a Mexican hero during the Independence, and Manuel Carmon y Valle, a famous and respected Mexican physician, can be found in the square.
