Hey everyone, I am planning a one-week trip to Mexico City, and I am looking for advice and opinions.

Here is my itinerary thus far:

Day 1: Arrival and Zocalo

• Arrive in Mexico City (very early morning) and check into my hotel

• Explore the streets and alleys of the Centro Historico

Day 2: Teotihuacan Pyramids and Museum

• Spend the afternoon in Chapultepec Park
• Visit the Chapultepec Castle

Day 4: Coyoacan and Frida Kahlo Museum

• Visit the Leon Trotsky Museum

Day 5: Puebla and Cholula Day Trip

• Take a day trip to Puebla

Day 6: Lucha Libre and Street Art

• Explore the neighborhoods of Roma and Condesa

Day 7: Xochimilco

I am also very interested in any books on Mexican culture and identity I should read before my trip, and music I should listen to.

So far I have read:

• Open Veins of Latin America by Eduardo Galeano
• The Revolt of the Masses by Jose Ortega y Gasset
• The Labyrinth of Solitude and Other Writings by Octavio Paz
• Piedra de Sol / Sunstone by Octavio Paz

And I've listened to a bunch of: Belanova, Cafe Tacvba, Mana, Thalia

Any and all feedback is welcome! Thank you in advance!

Edit: Don't know if this is needed for some contextual background, but I'm a Black woman in her early thirties from the Bay Area. Thanks!
