A new adventure park in Chihuahua, the Copper Canyon Adventure Park, set up high speed zip-lines and suspension bridges to allow thrill seekers to cross the Copper Canyon.

Every morning I passed the Forbidden City.  It was one of my favorite moments of the day and one morning I took my camera. But what may have been more impressive then […]
