This
park
in
the
middle
of
Los
Mochis
is
the
pride
of
the
city!
With
its
winding
path
that
goes
through
regional
trees,
a
palm
grove,
many
plants
and
fauna,
and
along
small
canals
that
leads
to
a
large
pond
with
small
islands
that
are
inhabited
by,
among
ducks
and
geese;
large
iguanas
sunbathing,along
with
hundreds
of
turtles
swimming
around,
and
sunning
on
the
shores
and
rocks.
Featured
in
the
middle
is
a
waterfall
like
fountain
that
you
can
walk
behind.
But
don't
spend
all
your
time
watching
the
birds,
turtles
and
iguanas
you've
only
made
it
through
the
first
quarter
of
the
park.
Behind
the
impressive
front
gates
that
are
opened
up
so
the
public
can
see
the
large
ground
fountain,
shooting
water
straight
up
with
children
running
around
in
it.
Just
past
the
fountain
is
a
huge
playground
with
many
places
for
kids
to
crawl
on,
including
two
swinging
bridges,
tower
in
the
middle.
Clean
public
restrooms
nearby.
And
last
of
all
acres
and
acres
of
grassy
fields
and
picnic
areas.
The
park
is
staffed
by
constant
workers
cleaning
up,
planting
trees,
cutting
grass
and
monitoring
the
area
for
safety.
A
little
info:
the
park
was
once
the
massive
grounds
surrounding
the
citys
founder's
Mansion/Hacienda,
many
parts
of
it
are
still
standing
all
around.
The
city
and
park
were
founded
by
an
American
family
named
Benjamin
Francis
Johnston
and
these
are
his
botanical
gardens.
