“A hidden gem in the heart of Venustiano Carranza?” you might ask. Here at the Parque de los Periodistas Ilustres, or “La Selvita” as locals affectionately call it, nature and history intertwine. This park, a sprawling green expanse of 90,000 square meters, isn’t just a place for recreation. It’s a living tribute to Mexico’s rich journalistic legacy. Parque de los Periodistas Ilustres is more than just swings and benches. It’s populated with the busts of iconic figures who shaped the narrative of a nation. Gaze upon the visages of José Carreño, José Pagés Llergo, Miguel Ángel Granados Chapa, Ricardo Rocha, Jacobo Zabludovsky, and Lolita Ayala. Even the esteemed Elena Poniatowska, honored in 2013, has found her place among these illustrious journalists in Parque de los Periodistas Ilustres. Imagine strolling through this “Little Jungle,” the rustling leaves whispering tales of scoops, exposés, and unwavering dedication to truth. The Parque de los Periodistas Ilustres, revived in 2008 with a significant investment, now boasts modern amenities, a testament to its value to the community. A fountain bubbles with life, a jogging track winds through the greenery, and a playground echoes with the laughter of children. As you wander, consider the park’s previous incarnation as the “Alameda Central” or “Jardín Francisco Morazán.” Its transformation, from a neglected space to a vibrant hub, mirrors the ever-evolving landscape of Mexican journalism. Parque de los Periodistas Ilustres stands as a testament to the power of the press, a verdant sanctuary where the stories of yesterday inspire the voices of tomorrow.
