pre-Hispanic remains show the greatness of the first civilizations settled on this site. Colonial architecture in its purest Baroque and neoclassic styles exemplify the blending of races, combining the natives carving work with the greatness of the European constructions. There are plenty of these examples along the city, sober and sumptuous temples, old residences and convents. Its suburbs like CoyoacĂĄn, San Angel or Tlalpan have a picturesque and unique style. For those who love art and history, there is a great deal of options including around 188 museums, 64 theaters, 15 cultural centers and 7 nearby archaeological zones.

La Condesa is an area considered to be one of the most fashionable with a number of examples of older Art Deco architecture and wide avenues lined with trees.

The new Basilica has a vast, rounded interior space, so the image of the Virgin can be viewed from many perspectives.

There is a nice pond at the entrance to the section devoted to plants traditionally used for ornamental purposes and another to medicinal plants. The arboretum stands out with a collection of living trees. Courses, workshops, concets and presentations on various topics related to plants are held at the garden occasionally.

Ajusco National Park

The park is part of a mountain chain of139 volcanic origin. The highest peaks are Cruz de Marqués (Marquis cross) with

3,930 meters above sea level (12,795 ft), and Pico de Águila (eagle’s beak) with 3,880 meters above sea level (12,730 ft). The Ajusco is visible from any part of Mexico city. The park is characterized by pine-oak forests and high mountain grassland and is a great place for those who love nature. It is ideal for activities such as mountain biking, horseback riding, motorcycling, hiking, paintball, ziplining, and climbing. This extinct 52 million year old volcano holds the distinction of being the most frequently climbed peak in all of Mexico, and the best season to climb it goes from November to March. The view of the Valley of Mexico from the summit is astonishing. Atop the volcano is the Tecpan pyramid, a pre-Hispanic site where artifacts have been discovered. Another interesting sites are San Miguel Ajusco Church, Santo Tomas Ajusco Church, and an educational farm. The area around the peak is a popular destination for residents and tourists, especially during the weekends. Here you will have the chance to enjoy nature and taste some of the local specialities offered by restaurants located by the Picacho road. During the winter is one of the few areas around the city where it may snow. Without doubt a beautiful protected area you must visit during your next trip to Mexico City.

It’s a great place for camping, mountain bike, trekking and hiking. There is a very well kept 17th century convent built by the Carmelites. The complex is remarkably picture perfect with courtyards of flowers and gardens. You can visit the old cells, oratories, church and underground tunnels. Outside the main gate, is the “Chapel of Secrets”; it has a domed roof and its acoustics allowed monks face into the corner to speak to another monk during the long stretches of imposed silence in the monastery. The ex-monastery occasionally holds cultural events and weddings. There is a nice restaurant and the Bicentenario Museum, housing photos of the nearby village and a model of the monastary. Facilities include picnic tables, grills, and children’s playgrounds. Outside the convent, there are a handful of restaurants selling “traditional” quesadillas (filled with things like corn-fungus, brain, potatoes and pork skin) that are not to be missed. Open Tuesday-Sunday 9:00-17:00 hrs. The delegation of Cuajimalpa organized the tour “Leyendas Nocturnas del Desierto de los Leones” (Leyends) every Thursday, Friday and Sunday at 20:30.
