A Sunday in Tepoztlan. Tepoztlan means "place of abundant copper or copper axe", is a small town nestled between craggy cliffs located to the south of Mexico City, near Cuernavaca. Tepoztlan is a peaceful village where pigs and burros still abound in the street and the sound of cocks crows pierces the early morning hours, and the local residents are fiercely proud and protective of their cultural heritage. It is a town of legends and deep cultural roots that has been appreciated by writers, poets, artists and musicians over many decades and centuries.
