Lake Texcoco Ecological Park, Nature reserve in state of Mexico, Mexico
The Lake Texcoco Ecological Park spans 14,000 hectares of restored wetlands, water bodies, and recreational spaces northeast of Mexico City's center.
The territory of Lake Texcoco supported the Aztec civilization through advanced agricultural techniques, including floating gardens called chinampas on the water surface.
The park includes a site museum detailing the environmental history of the region and the relationship between local communities and the ancient lake ecosystem.
Visitors can access multiple sports facilities, including soccer fields, basketball courts, baseball fields, cycleways, and running tracks spread across 270 hectares.
The park functions as a critical stopover for 250 bird species migrating between Alaska and South America, while supporting 350 additional fauna species.
