this weekend I had a difficult decision, get up form my bed at 7:30 am on Saturday brrr!!! or meet a corner of the world's largest city. Yes Mexico City...
Well I think my decision is not relevant, but suffice to say that there is always time for rest and fun, but this Saturday, I gave myself the task of knowing a place a little hidden, but as each of the places that are in this city, has its touch of magic and history.
Well, this time we went a little to the southwest of the city. It was 8:40 and we took the subway line 3 (Indios Verdes-Universidad), we travel to the 'Centro Medico'station. We moved to the Line 9 (Tacabaya-Pantitlan) and arrived at the station tacubaya. We moved again, now on line 7 (Barranca del Muerto-Rosario) and get off at 'San Pedro de los Pinos' Station.
Once there, jejeje, The truth anything we hadn't eaten breakfast, so we decided to buy a good 'torta de tamal' (also known as 'Guajolota'. Very typical in Mexico City, just enough to go through the streets in the morning to see that almost everywhere sell this delicious di
sh).
Well after the respective 'Guajolota'(by the way the greens are the most frequently asked and the ones I like myself), we asked the locals how to get to park Pombo.
A Mr nice, said me that I had to go to the 7th street, which practically to two streets from the subway station. Well, coming to this park we give account that is very small, and therefore if you are child you fun but ,this is very well have a good time to rest and admire the colonial style homes Californian.
I'm Amazed to know how there are parks very old and this is not exception. This park dates back to 1904, when the attorney Oaxaqueño Luis Pombo donated this space to the community. In the middle there is a kiosk with roofed rare, the kind with metal columns Renaissance Baroque style.
The truth, I recommend this park to go eat ice cream, or reading a good book under the shade of various trees that surround the park.
As at 12:40 gave us a little hungry, and then there is San Pedro's Market near, which they say is famous for its dining room serving dishes based on seafood.The truth, I don't like any of that but I chose some delicious' Enchiladas Verdes".
After a delicious lunch, we went to another famous place near the park, which is the parish of San Vicente Ferrer. this has a brick base,whose styles span handled some neoclassical-baroque,
and where is the bell tower.
This temple, so I read when I entered, was built between 1922 and 1958 by the Dominicans.
In this temple we can see the classic and golden altars, tained glass in polychrome over the ship and very beautiful oil paintings of the life of St. Vincent Ferrer along all the walls.
The truth all paths in this park are very quick, took no more than 1 hour in the whole journey that I mentioned, though, at lunch if we take some time jijijiji.
Well, near there went through the second avenue , walk five blocks south, and arrived at the famous "Miraflores park", which is much larger than the Pombo's park and has more types of trees and plants and palm trees. What I liked from there are the different types of cobblestone streets driving in the park and the huge pine trees make me think, why it is called 'San Pedro de Los Pinos'?
