Best parks in Iztapalapa

Iztapalapa is the largest of the boroughs in Mexico City, and its parks are spread across neighbourhoods rather than gathered in one place. The eight entries below are the ones verified for this guide, and they range from long linear parks and recreation grounds to a territorial nursery and a garden named after a person.

Practical notes

Opening hours, addresses and access arrangements were not verified for these entries, so check locally before visiting. Iztapalapa is large, so it helps to plan a route by neighbourhood rather than trying to reach several parks on one trip.
