The vast area houses the Feria de Chapultepec amusement park, 9 museums, Chapultepec Zoo, spacious lawns, picnic areas, bicycle and walking paths, monuments, fountains, Lago Menor (small lake) and Lago Major, and of course, restaurants.

Parque Lincoln
Located just steps away from the posh neighbourhood of Polanco, Parque Lincoln has a statue of Abraham Lincoln, hence the name. The perfect spot attracts bike-riders, joggers, pet walkers, and strollers who came from nearby establishments including some of Mexico City's best restaurants, bars, and shops. The friendly and hip vibe of the neighbourhood extends to Parque Lincoln and its people.

Parque Hundido
The Luis G. Park Urbina Park, most commonly known as Parque Hundido, has a special feature - a floral clock made by a Zacatlán, Puebla watchmaker. An audio drama in the park can accommodate around 140 people, perfect for a poetry reading, concerts, and events. There are also more than 50 pre-Colombian sculptures scattered along the routes. Towering trees line the pathways for joggers, cyclists, and walkers.
