What this is. A children's activity that turns a visit to Mexico City into an investigation — the format that works best with children in a city whose history is physically visible rather than described on a plaque.
The mysteries that are genuinely there. Why does the cathedral lean? Because the city was built on a lake and the lake was drained, so the whole centre is sinking at different rates. What is the pyramid behind the cathedral? The Templo Mayor, buried for four centuries and found by accident in 1978 by workers laying electricity cable. Why is there an eagle on a cactus on the flag? Because the Mexica were told to build their city where they saw one, and they found it on an island in 1325. And what are the axolotls in Xochimilco — the amphibians that never grow up and can regrow their own limbs?
Where to go looking. The Templo Mayor and the cathedral on the Zócalo; the National Museum of Anthropology; the Xochimilco canals; and the Chapultepec castle on its hill.
Practical notes. Under-fives travel free. Museums close on Mondays and charge children little or nothing. Water, cap and sunscreen at 2,240 metres.
