Pisca celebrates the harvest of the cacao bean, known as the “food of the gods” in Aztec culture and embraced for its aphrodisiacal qualities.

Xochimilco, called the "Place of flowers" by the Aztecs, remembers the rich history of Xochimilco Lake, once surrounded by a vast expanse of fertile gardens.
