Juventino Rosas is a very small but bustling colonia in the Gustavo A. Madero borough of Mexico City. It’s named for famous Mexican Composer Juventino Rosas. It should not be confused with the Colonia Juventino Rosas that is located in the Iztacalco borough.
Juventino Rosas Park is a popular attraction in the neighborhood, with many festivals, observances and events in the space. There is also a basketball court in the northern edge of the park, and the Juventino Rosas Ravine that serves as the park’s eastern boundary.[1] The street Miguel Lerdo de Tejada is the center of activity in the neighborhood, boasting a makeshift open-air market outside the park, as well as many shops and restaurants, including the locally famous Las Papas de León.
