Las islas, Public garden in Ciudad Universitaria, Mexico.
The extensive gardens feature wide pathways connecting multiple academic buildings and green spaces where students gather throughout the academic year.
The construction of Las Islas in the 1950s followed the design principles of English and American university campuses with a central garden.
Students from different faculties meet in Las Islas for academic discussions, artistic performances, and social interactions that strengthen university connections.
Located between faculty buildings, Las Islas remains open 24 hours daily and provides direct access to the university's main educational facilities.
The former Club Central building within Las Islas now houses the General Directorate of Educational Services after serving as the main university cafeteria.
