Chapultepec Castle and National History Museum
Climb to a hilltop castle for national history, furnished palace rooms and views over Chapultepec, allowing time for the ascent as well as the galleries.
The castle's changing uses make it more than a scenic lookout. Military, imperial and presidential histories meet in a building whose rooms range from museum displays to the furnished Alcázar. Looking outward over the park helps explain the setting, while the interiors show how successive occupants represented power and domestic life.
