Mount Tallac is a challenging hike perfect for seasoned adventurers. Spanning 9.5 miles round trip, the trail ascends to Lake Tahoe's tallest peak at an elevation of 9,735 feet. As you make your way to the summit, you'll be rewarded with breathtaking vistas, including stunning views of the lake, rugged ridges, lush meadows, and alpine lakes. The trail can be steep and rocky, so proper footwear is essential. Be sure to bring plenty of water and snacks, as the trek can take several hours to complete. Early morning hikes are recommended to avoid the afternoon heat and enjoy a quieter experience.

Tamayo Museum of Contemporary Art is Mexico City's quintessential art museum where you get to see the genius of Rufino Tamayo plus whatever temporary exhibition is on at the moment. Rufino Tamayo was one of the most renowned artists of the second half of the twentieth century who sought to create paintings in "the Mexican tradition" while distancing himself from the political and nationalist movements. Another big draw of the museum is the brutalist building itself, designed by Teodoro González de León and Abraham Zabludovsky who drew their inspiration from pre-Hispanic architecture. The core of the Museo Tamayo's collection consists of more than 300 works by 170 artists. The collection includes examples of the most renowned artists of the second half of the 20th century.

The National Anthropology Museum consists of permanent and temporary exhibitions of Mexican art, life and culture. Description texts and audio guides are available both in Spanish and in English making it easy for international travellers to learn about pre-Hispanic and contemporary history. Plan at least two hours to explore the thematic halls of this museum. There are enough exhibits to keep you coming back for days, though.
