Museo Jardín del Agua

Polanco
Located in Chapultepec's second section, this small museum includes a fountain created by Diego Rivera and the Cárcamo de Dolores, part of Mexico City's hydraulic system. The Cárcamo de Dolores was designed by architect Ricardo Rivas and built in 1951 to commemorate the completion of the Sistema Lerma, an integral part of Mexico City's water infrastructure. Inside, you'll find an impressive mural, also by Rivera, called El Agua, Origen de la Vida (Water, Origin of Life). The fountain is one of the park's most interesting public art works, depicting the formidable Tláloc, the Aztec god of rain, in mosaic.
