Cosmovitral Jardin Botanico

Reviewed By grip652 - Collierville, United States

This huge building has walls and ceiling of stained glass depicting “Man and his relationship with the universe.”The colors are vivid and change with the natural light outside. The name of the mural is Cosmovitral for cosmos and the Spanish word for glass. There are gardens that feature plants from around the world, from roses and herbs to cacti. Fountains and ponds add to the artistic atmosphere. Bathrooms are clean. There is a very small gift kiosk at the exit. A wide variety of vendors surround the building.

Nevado de Toluca

Reviewed By oer2018 - Annecy, France

You need a car! I couldnt find any tours. Bus will drop you off at the beginning of the road but this is too long to start walking unless you wanna camp. I can recommend driver Israel Miranda. His number is 7292841703. He picked us up (2persons) from hotel and drove all the way to the last parking spot (1.5hours). He waited for us for 6 hours and drove us back to the hotel. He recommended great local breakfast and lunch spots. All of this costed 1000 pesos (50dollars). The hike it self: if you wanna do the simple one its easy (going down to the lakes and back). If you wanna reach the top you'll need a guide or good climbing skills. I didnt climb the last top and wouldnt recommend it unless you dont give a thing about dying because you are all alone up there. Hike to the top and back is 6-8hours. Leave your hotel early for this, like 7-8am. Its cold up there. Enjoy!
