Food In Mexico

We’ll add the dishes we liked and didn’t like in this summary blog.

缆车公交 The Cablebús

2023年11月29日，星期三，墨西哥之旅第6天

November 29, 2023, Wednesday, the sixth day of our Mexico trip.

今天的行程又给我俩的旅游生活增添了一个独特的体验。我俩一大早徒步前往地铁站，计划乘坐地铁去体验著名的2号线缆车公交。谁知道，在去地铁的路上，我们竟然在一个轻轨站意外买到了两张公交卡——这真是个小小的惊喜！

Today’s itinerary added a unique experience to our travel plans. Early in the morning, we walked to the subway station, planning to take the subway to experience the famous Line 2 cable car bus. Unexpectedly, on our way to the subway, we found a machine that was selling the metro cards! — a pleasant little surprise! Metro cards allow us to use all types of transportation.

那个蓝房子The Blue House

2023年11月28日，星期儿，墨西哥城之旅第五天

November 28, 2023, Sunday, the fifth day of our trip to Mexico City

在这个不怎么阳光灿烂的墨西哥城早晨，我俩的目的地是充满传奇色彩的芙烈达·卡萝博物馆，在家没出发的时候就已经买好了博物馆的票。Uber三十多分钟就到达了博物馆所在的区域Coyoacán，这里是墨西哥城最古老的区域之一，它的历史可以追溯到前哥伦布时期。在西班牙征服时期，它成为了征服者的重要基地。

On this not-so-sunny Mexico City morning, our destination was the legendary Frida Kahlo Museum. It’s a popular place, so luckily we purchased tickets before leaving home. After about a thirty-minute Uber ride, we arrived in the Coyoacán area, where the museum is located. Coyoacán is one of the oldest districts in Mexico City, with a history that dates back to the pre-Columbian era. During the Spanish conquest, it became an important base for the conquerors.

“众神诞生之地”金字塔Teotihuacan Pyramids

2023年11月27日，星期一，墨西哥城之旅第四天 November 27, 2023, Monday, fourth day of the Mexico City trip.

今天我和PJG八点半就出发，踏上了通往古老神秘的圣城特奥蒂瓦坎的旅程，这一天的行程充满了历史的回响和现代的享受。我俩的旅程从一辆Uber开始，穿梭于墨西哥城的街道，直至北部的汽车站，在那里换乘前往“众神诞生之地”的大巴，车票很便宜，往返每人120墨西哥比索。坐在摇晃的大巴上，窗外的景色渐渐从都市的喧嚣转变为开阔的乡野，彷佛我们正驶离现实，驶向历史。一个多小时后，我们来到了“众神诞生之地”——特奥蒂瓦坎。

Today, PJG and I set out at 8:30 AM on a journey to the ancient and mystical city of Teotihuacan, a day filled with echoes of both history and modern enjoyment. Our journey began with an Uber ride, weaving through the streets of Mexico City, heading to the northern bus station.

查普尔特佩克城堡 Chapultepec Castle

2023年11月26日，星期日，墨西哥城之旅第三天 November 26, 2023, Sunday, third day of the Mexico City trip.

今天我俩化身为都市漫步者，从民宿步出，踏上了前往雄伟的查普尔特佩克城堡的征途。不过旅程意外地短暂，哈哈，只需大概25分钟就从都市的喧嚣中抵达了城堡的山脚下。途中，我俩穿行于La Condesa区域，这个区是墨西哥城的一个时尚而受欢迎的居住区，以其独特的艺术气息、欧洲风格的建筑以及美丽的公园和绿地而著称。

Today, the two of us transformed into urban wanderers, stepping out of our bed and breakfast and embarking on a journey to the magnificent Chapultepec Castle. The journey was surprisingly short, haha, taking only about 25 minutes to reach the foot of the castle from the hustle and bustle of the city. Along the way, we passed through the La Condesa area, a fashionable and popular residential area in Mexico City, known for its unique artistic atmosphere, European-style architecture, and beautiful parks and green spaces.

007-幽灵党之死者日节拍摄地 007 – Spectre – Day of the Dead Exploration.

2023年11月25，星期六，墨西哥城之旅第二天 November 25, 2023, Saturday, second day of the Mexico City trip.

今天，我和PJG浸淀在电影《007：幽灵党》的魅力中，探访了这部影片在墨西哥城拍摄的死者日节大游行开场戏的实地。原计划步行一个多小时，但为了节省体力，我俩转战了一辆路过的公交车。但谁知，这里的公交车竟然只接受当地的公交卡！幸好，遇到了一位友善的司机和乐于助人的乘客，他们帮我们刷卡，我俩给了那个乘客11墨西哥比索的车费——这是今天的第一个小惊喜。

Today, PJG and I immersed ourselves in the charm of the movie ‘007: Spectre,’ visiting the actual location in Mexico City where the opening scene of the Day of the Dead parade was filmed. We knew today we would be walking quite a bit, so we tried taking a bus to get nearer to the plaza.

四小时穿越，初到墨西哥城 Four Hours Journey, First Arrival in Mexico City

昨天是感恩节，吃了丰盛的感恩节火鸡大餐之后，今早很早起床，7点45出发去旧金山机场，时间好快，上次从这里出发，还是8月份飞回老家。我和PJG离开旧金山，翻越云朵的拥抱，不过短短四小时，我们就踏入了墨西哥城的怀抱。

Yesterday was Thanksgiving, and after enjoying a huge and hearty Thanksgiving turkey feast, we woke up early this morning and at 7:45am, set off for the San Francisco Airport. Time flies; the last time we departed from here was in August when I flew back home to China. Anyway, PJG and I left San Francisco, soaring through the embrace of the clouds and in just a short four-hour flight, we found ourselves in the embrace of Mexico City.
