Las Pozas

Las Pozas translates to ponds or pools of water. This is the place where an excentric Englishman with lots of money decided to spend his time and fortune. He created some crazy buildings and works of art out of concrete. Here are some of the pictures of this Jungle hideaway near the mountain village of Xilitla, Mexico.

You can learn more about Edward James and Las Pozas at the link Jungle Gossip web page.

Relaxing at the cafe at Las Pozas, make sure you check the best before date on the beer. They don't see a lot of tourists in this part of the Mexico.
