My favorite place in North America. It has beautiful spring like weather, very efficient public transportation, good food and affordable. The only con is not many people speak English. I usually check cdmxsecreta.com for new things to do prior to my trip.
Their re-loadable transit card can be used for metro (5 peso per ride regardless of distance), metrobus (6 peso), cable bus/car (7 peso). ecobici etc.
There are lots of museums (some are free), Chapultepec zoo (free), Aquario Michin has many activites (bowling, miniature golf, shooting etc).
Coyoacan, a laid back town is a short metro ride away.
Pharmacia Similares has discounts on Mondays (Doctor consultation 50 peso). Most chain pharmacy in Mexico has a doctor clinic next to it.
Lots of tianguis (outdoor flea market).
ETN bus to other cities is very clean and comfortable (fully recline seat).
I hope to check out their new train to Toluca in my next trip.
