TEOTITLAN DEL VALLE VIEWS

Teotitlan del Valle is a neat small village that impressed us with their sense of civic solidarity. Notice the streets. There isn't a spec of trash anywhere.
At the back of this street is our tour bus parked waiting for us. Most streets were cobbled like this one. The establishment at the corner was both a restaurant and wool rug showroom.

The tow taxis are this type of enclosed tricycle. Since few own cars, these small taxis are common and indispensable to the people. Click the picture to see the details. Click the browser back button to continue.
Here is a wall mural that reads:

"AVOIDING VIOLENCE is the job of all of us. No-one can evade their responsibility. No-one can cover their eyes, their ears, become mute, and cut their hands about this. DENOUNCE"

Here is another that reads:

REDUCE, REUSE, SEPARATE, RECYCLE

Together, but not stirred-up!

A very nice brick house.

A look over the wall into a traditional family compound.
