Интересы

Xochimilco: is a UNESCO World Heritage Site located about 17 miles (28 km) south of the capital's historical center. The name comes from Nahuatl (the language of the Aztecs) and means "flower garden." The canals of Xochimilco are a vestige of the Aztec agricultural technique of using "chinampas" to extend arable land in wetland areas. Although they're called "floating gardens" chinampas are in fact rooted to the lake bed. Xochimilco is a popular outing for Mexican families and friends, so it can be quite crowded. This can make for a fun experience.

Trajinera: The brightly colored boats that transport passengers through the canals of Xochimilco are called trajineras. They are flat-bottomed boats similar to gondolas.

Island of the Dolls: Is located in the Xochimilco canals. The legend behind this island is that many years ago its caretaker Don Julian Santana found the body of a girl who drowned in the canal. Shortly afterward he found a doll floating in the canal. He tied it to a tree as a way of showing respect to the drowned girl's spirit. Apparently, he was haunted by the girl and continued to hang old dolls in various states of disrepair on the trees of the small island as a way to appease her spirit. Don Julian died in 2001, but the dolls are still there and continue to deteriorate, getting even creepier over time.
