As part of the Festival del Bosque 2025 activities, six monumental mushrooms were installed in Chapultepec, as well as a thematic portal. Each one of the pieces is located in a different area; don’t worry, because we bring you the locations of all of them so you can visit them.
If you couldn’t make it to the festival, don’t worry because the Bosque de Chapultepec announced that the mushrooms will stay for three more months. That’s right: you will be able to see them installed until July 2025.
The Chapultepec Forest Festival changes its theme every year. First we saw giant insects, then a huge panda decorated the entrance to the forest and in 2024 large bats were installed for several months. This year, 2025, it’s time to celebrate the fungi kingdom, so mushrooms were installed all over the place. Get your camera ready.
Where were the monumental mushrooms placed in Chapultepec Forest?
According to the official billboard of the event, this year six macro mushrooms were installed in Chapultepec, which are placed in:
- Foro La Milla
- La Loma
- Botanical Garden
- Chapultepec Zoo
- Natural History Museum
- Xochipilli Fountain
Additionally, a themed portal with lots of mushrooms was installed at the Puerta de los Leones, the main entrance to Chapultepec Park (it is just a few steps from Paseo de la Reforma and the Estela de Luz). The best part is that you can take pictures with all the mushrooms.
It is worth mentioning that this portal is illuminated at night. Throughout the day it looks amazing but we recommend you to see it after sunset. Here we leave you a map so you can locate perfectly all the mushrooms that were installed this year.
