Eco-Park at Xochicalco


Adventure tourism is being promoted at the new ecological park by the Xochicalco ruins outside Cuernavaca. Xochicalco is where the inhabitants of Teotihuacan (near Mexico City) fled after their city was destroyed. Teotihuacan, famous for its pyramids, may have been the largest city on earth 1,500 years ago. Among the attractions at the new park are 23 zip lines zig-zagging over nearly 10 miles of forest.
