Chapultepec Park

At the end of Paseo de la Reforma avenue looms Chapultepec hill, noteworthy for the centuries-old forest which encircles it and for the castle which crowns its summit. For hundreds of years Chapultepec has been a focal point in this city of such tremendous population growth that an airy expanse of green is absolutely vital. It is complemented by important cultural centers including world-class museums (as the Museum of Anthropology), amusement parks, a zoo and lakes, and is crisscrossed by access routes. These routes are most used by hordes of visitors, many of them making up typical extended Mexican families, with their far-reaching family ties.

Chapultepec is girdled by some very attractive neighborhoods: Polanco, Condesa, San Miguel and, not far away, Tacubaya. Designed originally as residential enclaves, today they bring together many interesting buildings, cultural centers, restaurants like El Lago, Meridien and Cafetería del Bosque.
 

Main hotels are located just in front of the Park and close to important business areas like Reforma Avenue, Polanco neighborhood, Periferico motorway and not far from Santa Fe complex.
