Another view of the traditional huipil, the girl is not wearing a reboso in this picture. |
The majority of homes were made of adobe, which is a great material for homes since it insulates and is readily available. |
This cotton bag with traditional designs was woven by Natalia Diaz. |
The road out of Cotzocon is said to reach the State of Vera Cruz. However on all maps that I have it ends here. |
Half way to Cotzocon from Zacatepec there is a bridge over this river. |
The construction is town was substantial, in the back ground a double-decker kiosk, the only one I have ever seen. The town square was recently paved also. |
