The enchanting south village
Coyoacan
Average Distance: 8 KM
Estimated time: 2.5 hrs
Coyoacan is a peaceful charming small town right inside our busy city. In the streets one can see enchanting old style houses painted in brilliant colors, with wooden doors, and beautiful gardens and they are surrounded by small hidden peaceful parks with lots of plants and flowers.
We can admire its stone cobbled streets, churches, places devoted to cultural activities, Mexican restaurants, and traditional food and handicraft markets.
This fascinating place was home of many interesting people like Frida Kahlo and Octavio Paz.
For sure this route will make you run out of breath but not due to the altitude of the city or for our pace while running but for what you will feel once we visit the favorite place for runners from the south of Mexico City, "Viveros de Coyoacán".
