At' Xachimilco, many kinds of flowers grow on the banks of the channels that form the town often called the Mexi can Venice and flower decked boats carrying visitors around the waterways. The famous floating gardens ori ginally were rafts woven of twigs and reeds and anchored in the lake by natives who covered them with soil and vegetation. Later the Whittles attended a bull fight, considered the grandest of all the "fiestas." The travelers found Chapul tepec park and castle most beautiful, the park being a natural forest continually im proved since the time of the Aztecs. The castle on top oc cupies the site where, in the olden times, a pagan temple stood. Later it became Mon tezuma's country residence and was the official residence of the president of Mexico until. 1936 when it was made the National Museum of His tory. The Whittles visited the Metropolitan cathedral, larg est in America, and while touring the National Palace, saw the famous frescoes of Diego Rivera depicting scenes of Mexican history.
