Parque Juárez, Central park in Xalapa, Mexico

Located in downtown Xalapa, the Parque Juárez features terraced gardens with pathways, benches, and large araucaria trees next to government buildings.

The park, inaugurated in 1892, stands on the former site of the San Francisco Monastery that was constructed in 1534 during Hernán Cortés's time.

The park connects several cultural institutions including the Ágora de la Ciudad, Diego Rivera Art Gallery, and the Xalapa House Museum.

Visitors can access the park daily through multiple entrances along Juan de La Luz Enríquez Street, with direct connections to public transportation.

From the southern section, visitors can observe the Sierra Madre Oriental mountains, including Cofre de Perote and the snow-covered Pico de Orizaba.
