Bosque de Chapultepec

This 1,600-acre bucolic park has enough activities to fill days at a time and is particularly popular among families with children.

Its got to be one of the largest, best planned green spaces in the world, twice the size of NYC’s Central Park. There are nine museums within its confines giving me access to some of the best art and artefacts in the entire city. Lungfulls of clean oxygen in a city chocking with pollution. One of my fav spots is home to the Fuente de Tlaloc and the Carcamo de Dolores, featuring two of Rivera’s more unique and lesser known works of art- the massive mosaic tile fountain and mural. Its nice to sit and contemplate one’s navel or watch the never still locomotion of the populace at play or rest. I am in the reading garden audiorama sitting on the comfy multicoloured bench while all around me children, elderly folk and tourists like me take time out to let this marvel of great planning, seep- in and invade my pleasured sensorium. Its perfectly positioned opposite the amazing Anthropological Museum on the Paseo de la Reforma. Its a zig-zag kind of adventure with terrific views like nowhere else. All roads bordering the park have the best preserved Art Deco buildings which form a non ending eye-candy for this architectural buff. the best in my time in the capitol were: Avenida Mexico, Avenida Amsterdam, Campeche and Queretaro.

With my girlfriend we took the kayak tour through the mangroves and our guide was Eliseo. Eliseo is a local and very knowledgeable about the whole area. He was one of the people involved in the restoration of the whole mangrove. 15 years there was a lot less of the mangrove and through the hard work done by Eliseo and others, the mangrove is healthy and flourishing, with tons of birds and other wildlife. Very impressive!! Went we went, there were unfortunately no flamingos to see, but through clear and prompt communication with Jose we were aware of this beforehand. The kayak tour took a little bit more than an hour and Eliseo spotted lots of birds for us (incl. an owl [we were apparently lucky to see one], an eagle that caught a snake, woodpecker and others). Going through the mangroves was very fascinating and once we were out in the open we had a bit of a workout as the wind was against us. But we did not mind one bit :) Overall, good fun, very insightful and definitely worth a visit!! Eliseo also gave us some tips on a nature park in the area as well as great restaurant in the area
