Monterrey, MEX. What places do you reccomend? |
Travel Info If you only had 24 hours, what places would you reccomend in this city...? Travel Tips Chipinque National Park is located just 20 minutes outside of downtown Monterrey by car. Most taxi drivers will take visitors there as well. Just remember if you do take a taxi to be sure to arrange a time to be picked up. The park is a large, well-preserved natural area in the Sierra Madre Oriental mountain range, full of hiking trails (over 15 km) and scenic vistas which attract many nature lovers, bird and wildlife seekers, and mountain bikers each year. The park is also a popular picnic spot and weekend getaway for Monterrey locals during the summer, as it is much cooler than the is city at this time. At Chipinque's entrance is a store where one can purchase supplies such as film, water, and snacks as well as a small restaurant. It is believed that the park's name comes from a local native tribe, Nahuatl Chichipinqu. Entrance to the park costs 30 pesos, or about $3 US. See Chipinque's website (in Spanish) for more details. Others The country's name is M茅xico - and not Mex!!!! Learn some respect for other countries!!!!!!! |
