About Xochimilco Canals

The emblematic destination of Mexico City

Long before the pre-Hispanic era, the ancient people of Xochimilco navigated these waters in “canoes,” gliding through what was once a vast network of five lakes: Zumpango, Xaltocan, Texcoco, Chalco, and Xochimilco.

 

Imagine a landscape of rivers, natural springs, and crystal-clear lagoons… yes, truly crystal-clear. Here, the Xochimilcas and Mexicas lived in harmony with nature, mastering an extraordinary agricultural system that produced food and flowers for generations.

 

After the Spanish conquest, much of this paradise began to vanish. Today, Xochimilco stands as a living treasure, a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1987, preserving the last remnants of this remarkable natural and cultural legacy.

Come and explore Xochimilco — where colors, flowers, and history float together on the water, waiting to be discovered.
