Fuentes Brotantes de Tlalpan National Park

A protected area with springs emerging from Sierra del Ajusco slopes features a lake, cedar forests, and eucalyptus groves at 2,250 meters above sea level.

President Lazaro Cardenas established the park on September 28, 1936, designating 129 hectares for public recreation and environmental education purposes.

The park serves as a gathering space where local residents participate in theatrical performances, concerts, and various community activities throughout the year.

Visitors can access hiking trails, children's play areas, food zones, and observe numerous species of waterfowl around the artificial lake.

From the original sixteen natural springs in the 1930s, only one remains active today, feeding the artificial lake where swans and ducks reside.
