La Marquesa National Park, National park between Mexico City and State of Mexico, Mexico

Located on mountainous terrain, La Marquesa National Park contains forest areas, walking paths, and recreational spaces spanning multiple municipalities including Ocoyoacac and Huixquilucan.

The park, established in 1936, marks the location of the 1810 Battle of Monte de las Cruces during the Mexican War of Independence.

Three bronze statues of Miguel Hidalgo, Ignacio Allende, and José Mariano Jiménez stand near La Marquesa village, facing east toward Mexico City.

Visitors can access the Centro de Información Turistica for horse rentals, hiking trails information, and guidance to various recreational facilities within the park.

The Valley of Silence provides a natural environment where visitors can observe local wildlife and experience the park's indigenous Otomí community heritage.
