Fun excursion! The castle was really interesting and pretty. The side with the art was neat, but the side with the rooms set up was much better! They had beautiful gardens and lovely terraces with great views. Reasonably priced.

Beautiful castle to see. Many museums are free on Sunday to Mexicans but if you are a foreigner just know you are not included which is understandable. There is an app you can download in English to view the castle and many of the information plaques are in both Spanish and English. The app may be slow and not worth it if your time is limited. You can do the castle in about 1 hour if you do not have a lot of time. Be ready for a good walk up the hill to the castle.

Chapultepec Castle was one of the main places I wanted to visit during my tour of CDMX. Be prepared for the views of the city from a great vantage. My visit was at the very end of May making it hot going up in the middle of the day. Make sure to visit earlier in the morning. Though the building itself was very fresh.

A beautiful estate nestled over 2000 meters above sea level. It offers a breathtaking 360 views of Mexico City and the surrounding Chapultepec park. This is a definite must see not only for the views of Mexico City but to also appreciate the architecture and beautiful grounds of the Castle. From the garden on the first floor by the entrance to the second floor garden, the vibrant stained glass windows, the beautiful paintings, and learning about the history of Mexico City, this place has it all! It is a bit of a hike from the ticket office to the castle so make sure to wear comfortable shoes, breathable clothes and pack some cold water!

It’s a castle and house Anthropologie. I appreciate the vintage furniture, the view from the balcony, the city is beautiful, and the grounds themselves were outstanding. The museum houses much history, but I was most interested in the living quarters, for those like the living quarters for emperor Maximilian and empress Carlota . I loved the 18th Century architecture. I especially loved the stain glass hallway. It is one of the most visited landmarks in Mexico City.

It is a great cultural spot, be prepared with walking shoes as it is a km uphill walking road to the castle, but once you are there you get the best city view. Also the surroundings have other interesting museums where you can go afterwards. It opens 9:30 am

So much history and beauty. The views you get of the city are absolutely stunning! The garden was beautifully manicured, the castle was gorgeous, and it was great to learn a little more about Mexico’s history. This is a place I would find the time to visit even if you’re on a short trip. Something to note it’s a bit if a hike up to the castle. If you’re traveling with young kids you’ll have to check in your stroller once you reach the castle. They’re is no fee to do so and the process was easy.

Beautiful location and very interesting. We went early (about 9am) and there was hardly anyone there. When we reached the top of the hill, we met a guide (assuming he was independent of the facility) who offered to give us a private tour. Not sure this was necessary as he was a bit difficult to understand and the facility had a lot of things written in English (unlike at the Anthropology Museum where it was all in Spanish). Definitely recommend visiting here but if you want a guided tour, maybe find someone with great reviews in advance.

My friend and I only had 2 hours to spend at the castle so we rushed around a little bit. If you do not speak Spanish, I would recommend a tour as there is one whole section that is only in Spanish and we wish we had a guide to explain it to us. If you have a guide, I would imagine you could spend many more hours here! The castle was beautiful, the history and the artefacts were stunning. Would definitely recommend a visit here!
