Its popular name is derived from the abundance of watercress that used to grow here. It has a central gazebo and a statue of Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla.

In addition to its extensive gardens, it features playgrounds, bike rentals, electric carts, and a train known as "el piojito" (the little louse), which allows you to tour the park.

There are several restaurants and cafes in the vicinity where you can enjoy delicious churros.
