Former Sugar Mill, Cocoyoc, Morelos

Cocoyoc was a large sugar ingenio founded in what is now the state of Morelos (a semi-tropical region to the south of the Valley of Mexico) during the colonial period. It is now a luxury resort hotel. The picture shows ruined mill buildings fronted by a modern swimming pool, which is fed in part by the mill’s colonial-era aqueduct.

Photo was taken in the fall of 1989 with a Minolta SRT 101 camera using Kodachrome slide film. Robert Haskett, ©2005.
