Cool park. A lot of greenery--- grass banks you can lie down on, water features, walk paths, and benches. And a CDMX signa and a big memorial as cool photo opportunities.

Great park for skating, people watching, walking and running. Safe during the day as well as at night. Music, dancing and plenty of content creation goes on here everyday. Plus, it's a good place to get a pic in front of one of the CDMX signs that are around the city.

Nice for a quick walk around the old Chimalistac area. Not many benches or sitting spots and the children playground is rather tiny. It is really clean and I'm a convenient location.
