Sightseeing
"La Presa de la Olla" is a beautiful piece of nature near the city with lakes, parks and viewpoints in the mountains. You can rent a small row boat and take a tour of the lake, feed the ducks or you can sit in one of the many popular little restaurants and enjoy the atmosphere and the people passing by. Families picnic in this park on weekends. On Fridays and Saturdays the "food trucks" line up around the dam with delicious food. When the reservoir is full, in late June or early July, there is a party where the dam is opened.
