More on Mexico City from the Orbitz Blog

Mexico City is a fascinating and affordable vacation

Neighborhoods a little west of the center have some good hipster amenities. I preferred areas like La Condesa and Colonia Roma, which had quiet leafy streets, dusty Art Deco homes, artists' workshops, and some funky cafes and restaurants.
