Timeline
15:12
Eat dinner early. I Love Tlayudas is open until 01:00 on weekdays, so you have plenty of time to enjoy a regional meal before the light fades.
16:42
Walk to Benito Juarez National Park. The park is open and the entrance fee is M$20. Use this time to find a comfortable spot on the trails or a quiet bench where you can see the western horizon.
18:12
Watch the sunset. On 15 January, the sun sets at 18:12 toward the WSW. The golden light begins around 17:41, so you will see the sky shift from bright to warm orange as the sun dips below the horizon.
19:12
Stay for the evening cool-down. The park remains a peaceful place to linger after the sun has set. You can walk the trails in the dimming light or simply sit and watch the stars emerge.
Local tip
The walk from the food shop to the park is long, so start early. If you want to extend your evening, the park is a safe and spacious place to stay after dark.
