On a day long trip to the falls and Montebello lakes.
The falls are clean, spotless, seemingly endless. A great guide provided gratis.
We hiked to the top, incredible views and colors. A short chance to swim in chilly waters.
An incredible outing! But, not for physically unfit since it's a trek.

This historical monument is not such an interesting site per se and currently under construction because it was damaged by the earthquake, What is nice about is, is that it is at the centre of the local central plaza which is very lively in the evening and a nice place for people-watching.

Canyon del Sumidero well worth the visit especially when in combination with the various look out points from the canyon rim above. Just wish there was more floating trash control and removal. Must be hard to keep up. Schools can do their part but respect for the environment has to start at home.

We took our children to this zoo on a very hot summer day and it was a great experience!. The dense foliage provides relief from the Chiapas heat as well as creating a tropical oasis in the middle of a huge city. I really forgot that I was in an urban center while visiting this zoo. We come from San Diego, which has a world class zoo, so I rarely visit other zoos while traveling, but the allure of ZooMAT is that all the animals are specific to the region. Some animals are free-roaming, which was fun for the children. There are lot of smaller exhibits along with big, natural enclosures for the larger animals. It definitely feels like you're walking through their natural habitat. We were excited to see animals we'd only previously seen on TV :) My personal favorites were the coatimundi and the tapir. This is definitely a must-see while in Tuxtla!

I had had a beer there the afternoon after going on the canyon tour. I asked if they did breakfast and was told yes.
I was satisfied with the service and presentation of the food. I also enjoyed looking close up at the photos of Chiapa on the walls.

Ese lugar está muy lejos de Chiapa de Corzo, cerca con la frontera de Guatemala. La carretera es muy difícil, puras curvas 3 horas y un poco de terraceria al final. Pero es un lugar mágico, perdido en la selva, tranquilo con cascadas de agua cristalina. Cerca hay un mirador. Las cabañas son muy buenas. El restaurante necesita un chef. Se puede bañarse en el río, pero el agua es muy fría.

My sister and I recently spent three days in Tuxtla after studying Spanish for two weeks in San Cristobal de las Casas. The first place we visited was marimba park on a Sunday night. We were delighted with the cool breezes blowing through the trees throughout the park, the colorful attire of the people, the range of ages involved and the friendliness of everyone in the park. The music started at a slower pace and then the beat picked up. Lots of people were dancing, others just relax and enjoy beautiful winter evening in the park. This is the best way to keep cool on a warm night in Tuxtla. Different marimba bands play every night of the week. Arrive before 6 o'clock to get a seat. Plenty of different places to eat or have coffee around the perimeter of the park. Not to be missed! No charge either!

We were so lucky to visit the first day of the 3 day annual fiesta (January 21-23) commemorating the defiant last stand by the local Indians against the Spanish Conquistadores. Several hundred apparently chucked themselves over the side of the Sumidero Canyon and into the river Grijalva rather than submit. What a fantastic sight met us, the streets were festooned with those lovely Mexican flags, there was an enormous market selling all sorts of locally handmade gifts and so many stalls etc selling food and drink. In addition all the local people were dressed in their beautiful embroidered garments which are commemorated on the entry to the town by the statue of a Chiapa de Corzo lady wearing her traditional dress. What noise, what fun, what excitement. It is difficult to say what it is like other days as it was so crowded we could only laugh and join in the fun. We could only see the outside of the local church which was built of brick and looked rather grand as it had been damaged by the September earthquake, I wonder if it survived the recent one?

Es un lugar muy bien conservado a pesar de tanto tiempo que lleva construido. Es muy bonito y tranquilo, se puede pasear por todos sus pasillos, adentro hay el museo de laca muy lindo.

It’s closed until further notice, check upfront with locals if it makes sense to go there. In any case it’s few mins out of town so if you have time you can try your luck
