Benito Juárez is a central borough of Mexico City rather than a separate city, covering middle-class neighbourhoods such as Del Valle, Nápoles and Narvarte. It is well served, relatively quiet and increasingly popular with visitors staying longer in the capital.
The borough holds the Polyforum and the World Trade Center tower, and the Nápoles area is known for its mid-century architecture. The major museums and the historic centre lie to the north, and Coyoacán and San Ángel are immediately to the south.
Several metro lines and the Metrobús corridors cross the borough, making it one of the better-connected parts of the city. The streets are flat and walkable, and cycling infrastructure has expanded considerably.
The altitude keeps the climate mild year-round, with a rainy season through the summer bringing heavy but usually short afternoon storms. The drier months from late autumn to spring are sunnier, with cold nights.
Mexico uses the MXN, calling code +52.
Mexico uses the peso, and Spanish is the language, with English more common here than in most of the city. Greetings and politeness precede business, and cards are widely accepted alongside cash.
