texcotzingo sign
Tetzcotzingo, also called los banos de Nezahualcoyotl (former ruler of Texcoco before the Spanish conquest). His summer palace, botanical gardens, baths, and shrine to the rain god Tlaloc.
Nezahualcoyotl was known as the poet king, and many of the signs on the hill feature his poetry. This one is about how we will not be here (with our roots in the earth) forever; even jade and gold will break; we are only here for a short time.
Oh, and put your trash in the trash cans, dammit.
