The map
Chalco Map Poster & Print
Chalco lies in the southeast of the Valley of Mexico, in the State of México, on land that was once the bed of Lake Chalco. The lake was one of the five connected lakes in the valley before the Spanish conquest, and it was gradually drained over several centuries. The flat terrain it left behind is the base for the city's streets today.
On a map, Chalco's older centre forms a small cluster within a much wider urban area that has grown rapidly in recent decades, merging with neighbouring municipalities. The land is almost completely flat, so the new streets follow long, straight grids. East of the city, the ground rises toward the volcanoes Iztaccíhuatl and Popocatépetl.
A Chalco map poster shows the flat grid of the former lakebed, the older town at its heart, and the main highways connecting it to Mexico City. The regular pattern tells the story of a lake turned into land and then into city. It is a thoughtful choice for anyone whose family history is tied to this part of the valley.

Historic centre
The older town forms a small, compact core within the much larger urban area that has grown up around it.
Road to the volcanoes
Highways lead east, where the land rises toward Iztaccíhuatl and Popocatépetl. The terrain on that side of the map becomes less regular.

Why Chalco
A map that means something
Chalco is home to a large community with deep ties to the Valley of Mexico. Its map shows how the city grew from a small town on the lakeshore into a large urban area on the former lakebed.
You can add a title, a subtitle with a family name or date, and the coordinates. Choose one of five styles: Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. Blueprint suits the straight lines of the former lakebed grid.
