Horseback Riding On The Eve Of The Most Beautiful Flower Of The Ejido In Xochimilco, Mexico City
Older women native to Xochimilco representing the Most Beautiful Flower of the Ejido from the different neighbourhoods and villages of the municipality in Mexico City, pose before their participation in a horseback ride on the eve of the festivities for the Most Beautiful Flower of the Ejido. The objective of La Flor Más Bella del Ejido is to revalue the beauty of the mestizo women who live in Xochimilco, in addition to preserving and highlighting the origins of the towns that at some point in their history had or still have farmland or ejidos.
