Description
Discover one of the most emblematic places in Mexico City, the majestic Chapultepec Castle. Join us to learn about the history hidden within this enclosure.
Your tour begins in Chapultepec Forest, one of the largest urban parks in the world. From there, we will begin a walk to the top of the hill, where the imposing Chapultepec Castle is located. Along the way, we will tell you the history of this place, occupied since pre-Hispanic times, and its transformation over the years into the National History Museum.
Once inside the castle, we will explore its luxurious halls, marble staircases, stained glass windows, and furniture from the time of Porfirio Díaz. We will also visit the gardens, terraces, and balconies with breathtaking views of Mexico City. We will tell you how the architecture of the place changed, the arrival of figures such as Maximiliano and Carlota, the passage of Porfirio Díaz, and the defense of the castle with the Niños Héroes during the US intervention in Mexico.
This tour is a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the past, admire 19th-century art and architecture, and enjoy an unforgettable walk in a natural and historic setting.
