Dating back to the 14th century, the colorful wooden boats were originally used by the Nahuatl people to transport crops grown on the floating agricultural gardens known as chinampas to the ancient capital of Tenochtitlan. Today, the historic canals remain one of Mexico City's most popular tourist attractions, offering visitors a glimpse into the region's cultural and agricultural heritage.
