Orquídeas Moxviquil Revisited + Maya Museum of Medicine

In just 3 years this place has really grown! Raining the day we visited, we weren't able to completely capture all the changes in pictures. Inside the greenhouse was a different story; it was simply phenomenal and overbearingly beautiful.

During our visit to the garden we also visited the nearby Maya Museum of Medicine.

Slightly east of the northern extension of Utrilla and on the Perieferico lies Orquideas Moxviquil. I last saw this place 3 years ago and I was anxious to return to see what had been done.

Unfortunately it began misting rain and I was not able to capture the full essence of the outside gardens. Still it was remarkable seeing them for a distance and all that had been done.

This is a true work of art in the appropriately artistic and surreal city of San Cristobal de las Casas.

A few moments after quickly walking the grounds, the rain came peppering down. The greenhouse offered both a shelter and a fascinating area for exploration while the storm passed.

There had to be minimally triple the growth since my last visit.
