To see: Museo Soumaya. Founded by Carlos Slim, Soumaya is the most visited art museum in Mexico comprising one of the biggest Rodin collections to date.
To eat: El Palacio de Hierro. Eat your way through the food hall of this mall and you won't regret it. Pay special attention to the tacos (el califa), the juices (ojo de agua), and the churros (el moro). Then grab some ice cream (neveria roxy) and cookies at the bakery for the road.
