Since October, the Santa Catarina – Zacatepec Natural Protected Area contains a door to look at the landscape. That red viewpoint that emerges from the skin of nature,which invites us to cross the vast xerophilous scrub, but without disturbing it through our senses and thoughts demanding the right to the landscape.Zacatepec view point is a red steel structure elevated 8 meters high with a concrete foundation and masonry. The site had the lowest possible impact as the guiding axis, thus placing it in the area with the least vegetation cover.
