Rainforest Wonderland las pozas: The place where the spirits live is "Las Pozas (Water Pool)", a sculpture garden consisting of a series of concrete structures and wonderful paths. Located near the village of Xilitla, Mexico, the river with a waterfall ripples through the garden and is surrounded by huge terrace jungle. The design was conceived by the British poet and surrealist art collector Edward James and the Mexican Helitra artist Plutarco Gastélum. It began as a story about butterflies and dreams, and in 1940, Edward and his friend Gastelum traveled here, bathing in a small pool here, and suddenly a group of butterflies flew around them, flying around them. Edward decided that this was a sign of God, and, between 1947 and 1949, he decided to build the Garden of Eden, which he longed for. Despite his wealth, James was forced to auction off his surreal collection to cover the $5 million structural cost needed to build the garden. In the 1960s and 1970s, James invested more and more resources into what he called “surreal paradise,” spending millions of dollars and hiring hundreds of masons, craftsmen and local craftsmen. By the time James died in 1984, he had built 36 surrealist concrete sculptures scattered across about 20 acres of tropical jungle. In his early years, James planned to use his knowledge of horticulture to build a real garden, but a blizzard in 1962 destroyed his garden and dispelled his idea of placing his eternal garden of Eden on flowers and plants that were vulnerable to the natural environment. He decided to build a truly permanent garden, using concrete structures to represent plant elements, and using sculptures to restore his precious orchids and never fade away. Since then, the garden has been transformed into a source of his creation. The overall construction process of Las Pozas involved 150 people, including carpenters, bricklayers and gardeners, who died in 1984 on a trip to northern Italy and in 1991 "Las Pozas" opened to the public. Las Pozas is like a scene from a fantasy fairy tale, a place with advanced and artistic civilization. There are countless pools, waterfalls and trails to spend hours exploring around. For those visiting, it is a creative refuge. Climate and terrain blend perfectly with concepts, and the natural mist here adds mystery; water and vegetation add magic. Everything in Las Pozas is mysterious, whether it is unusual architectural form or wanton growing plants, making it a place where elves live. #Hotel Design #Sculpture #Artist #Garden
This garden is a real version of the Wizard of Oz! This garden was built by a wealthy Mexican. When I went with my classmates, I didn't know there was this attraction, because it was really too few people knew it, or a local friend in Mexico told me, so I went here on the first day 💕 In this garden, She has a lot of pavilions, a rotating staircase, and a surreal feeling. His temple is not an ordinary temple. His temple is empty. He has no ceiling. He only has a few pillars. But it looks very good. There are many banana trees in this garden. He was so beautiful when he got up. It was like Alice in Wonderland. Every step I took was able to take countless super beautiful photos. The vision I took at the rotating stairs was the best. I went at ten in the morning. At ten o'clock, the sun was just right, and the mountain mist had not dispersed, so it seemed more mysterious. We also went to the garden near here. The garden is also very beautiful. There are many kinds of rich flowers are tropical flowers and plants. I have never seen it in China. If I have another chance, I will definitely come here to see it again. It is really good to see the address :Camino Paseo Las Pozas SN, Barrio La Conchita, 79902 Xilitla, S.L.P.
