Edward James built a surreal concrete sculpture park in the misty jungle of Xilitla. One of the most unique places in Mexico.
Las Pozas covers 20 hectares with more than 30 concrete structures, stairs to nowhere, and pools hidden in the cloud forest. Open daily from 9 am to 4 pm.
Xilitla is a Magical Town in the mountains. Try the local coffee (grown at altitude), visit the ex-convent and the Leonora Carrington museum.
The garden is steep and humid — wear good shoes and mosquito repellent. Bring a light jacket: the mountain gets foggy and fresh.
Our local team helps you build the perfect route: waterfalls, lodging, tours and transport.
