Légende
Travel poster for Mexico featuring the city of Xochimilco where water paths plied by gondolas meander through flower strews canals. Xochimilco is best known for its canals, which are left from what was an extensive lake and canal system that connected most of the settlements of the Valley of Mexico. These canals, along with artificial islands called chinampas, attract tourists and other city residents to ride on colorful gondola-like boats called “trajineras” around the 170 km (110 mi) of canals..
