Chapultepec Castle, located in Mexico City's Chapultepec park, sits atop Chapultepec Hill at 2,325 meters above sea level. Originally built as a summer house for the viceroy during the Viceroyalty of New Spain, it later served as a military academy and imperial residence. Maximilian I of Mexico and Empress Carlota made it their home during the Second Mexican Empire. Today, it houses the National Museum of History and is known for its stunning architecture and historical significance. Visitors can explore its rooms, gardens, and enjoy panoramic views of Mexico City from this iconic castle.
