Las Pozas, San Luis Potosi, Mexico

Las Pozas is truly one of the hidden wonders of modern Mexico. Located in the lush rain forest of the isolated Huasteca Potosina region of San Luis Potosi state, this remarkable surrealistic sculpture garden was created by Edward James, an eccentric British poet, nature lover, and art patron. Between 1949 and 1984, James built 36 fantastical concrete sculptures in a patch of jungle near the mountain town of Xilitla.
