Chapultepec

Nature and Parks in Mexico City

"Chapultepec is the largest urban forest in Mexico City and home to some of Mexico City’s top sights. The forest is divided into three parts with the first two being the most attractive to visitors. In the first portion, you can find some of the city’s most important museums, such as the National Anthropology Museum and the Modern Art Museum; the city zoo; the Chapultepec Castle; and an artificial lake where you can rent rowboats. In the second part, you’ll find the La Feria amusement park, Museum of Natural History, two more lakes, and plenty of trails to walk or jog around. You can spend the whole day here, just be mindful of crowds during weekends and national holidays." - MATADOR_NETWORK
