Ten places to go out with children on the long weekend

This weekend is long; you and your children are looking forward to Friday to forget about daily tasks. If you still don’t have plans, we recommend these places to go out with children and take advantage of family days off.

On March 21st, the birth of Benito Juárez is commemorated, so there will be no classes on Monday, the banks will be closed, and offices will be closed. Pack your bags and escape with your family to one of these destinations near Mexico City (CDMX). Enjoy the warm weather to leave stress behind.
