Tourism Trajinera Boats In Xochimilco Mexico City

A traditional trajinera boat driver uses a long wooden pole to propel the boat as he navigates through the canals of Xochimilco in Mexico City, Mexico. The brightly decorated flat-bottom boats carry visitors through waterways that date back to the Aztec era. Xochimilco is a UNESCO World Heritage site and a major cultural tourism destination, where locals and travelers alike hire colorful boats, enjoy food and live music on the water, and experience one of Mexico's most iconic traditions.
