#GobiernoDeMéxico.- President Andrés Manuel López Obrador cut the inaugural ribbon of the Fourth Section of Chapultepec Forest and Line 3 of the Mexico City Cable Bus, which are part of the Chapultepec: Nature and Culture Project.
“It is an emotion, a joy to be here with all of you who, in effect, are part of a brotherhood; there are friends here, dear friends (…) I am very pleased that we are inaugurating this Fourth Section of the Chapultepec Forest; now there are 800 hectares and it is something very well deserved for this great Mexico City. Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart,” he said.
The Secretary of Culture, Alejandra Frausto Guerrero pointed out that the Chapultepec Forest was fragmented by the former Official Residence of Los Pinos, now converted into the Los Pinos Cultural Complex; the opening to the public, on December 1, 2018, meant the union of all the sections.
A video highlighted the most important works in Chapultepec, among them: Cencalli, La Casa del Maíz, the Scenic Pavilion, the Environmental Culture Center, the Community Culture Pavilion, the Dolores Pantheon, the Urban Culture Park, the National Art Cellar, the Chapultepec National Film Archive, the Exfábrica de Pólvora and the Vasco de Quiroga Hermitage. In addition, the new art schools: Escuela Artística El Arsenal and Centro de Capacitación Cinematográfica Chapultepec. The total investment of the project is more than 10,500 million pesos.
Line 3 of the Cablebus connects the four sections of Chapultepec in only 21 minutes; it will begin operations this Tuesday at 5:00 p.m. and will cost seven pesos. The first station starts at Los Pinos.
At the Open Air Cinema Forum of the Cineteca Nacional, the President highlighted that the cultural, environmental and urban project incorporates the Chapultepec Forest to the popular neighborhoods of Santa Fe, which will enjoy recreational activities and nature.
As a result of the expansion and construction of infrastructure, the Chapultepec Forest becomes the largest in the world with 866 hectares connected from the First to the Fourth Sections. In these tasks, the springs and the Vasco de Quiroga Hermitage, a 16th-century construction from New Spain, were protected.
