XOCHIMILCO

Xochimilco is a very beautiful and popular place in Mexico City. It is known for its famous canals and its colorful trajineras, which are traditional boats. Here I give you an overview for your visit:

• Xochimilco is a system of canals and lakes where the Xochimilcas built artificial islands, called Chinampas. Today, it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the main tourist attractions in the city. The canals are famous for their flower-decorated trajineras and eye-catching paintings, which are a fun and unique way to tour the area.

• One of the main activities that you can do in Xochimilco is to embark on a trajinera and enjoy a pleasant ride through the canals. You can hire a trajinera per hour and take your family or friends with you. During the tour, you will be able to enjoy the music of mariachi or marimba groups, who come to the trajineras to offer you their live music. You will also find food and drink vendors floating on small boats, so you can enjoy Mexican snacks while you sail.

• Try the local food: Take the opportunity to try Mexican appetizers while you cruise through the canals. There is a wide variety of options, such as quesadillas, elotes, esquites, and tamales. • Respect the environment: Xochimilco is an important ecological reserve, so it is important to care for and preserve the place. Do not throw garbage into the water and respect the local flora and fauna.
