| Cuernavaca is a small town located only 80 kilometers (50 miles) from the Mexican capital. It is known as the city of eternal spring, thanks to its lush vegetation, the wide variety of flowers that grow in the area, the tranquility of its streets and people and its magnificent climate, warm almost all year round. |
| Cuernavaca is also famous for its gardens, the most beautiful of all being Jardin Borda. The name of Cuernavaca is dervied from the language of the Nahua tribes who lived in the area before the arrival of Hernán Cortés. It comes from the word "Cuauhnáhuac", meaning "among groves". | |
