Los Lavaderos de Almoloya

In case you are somewhere around, go and look but dont expect much. You can only one 'room' behind the bars, it is not possible to enter and it is for free.

Interesting the history of these places. The good thing is that they do not charge. The bad thing is that they look far away. It seems that the owners are one of the two hotels that are next door. Although it is good to see them does not seem a must. Although if one is walking through the neighborhood of the artist or pariah or visiting a church that is nearby it is a good idea to go see them. There is a fountain with talavera tile in front and a pleasant park to rest and inhale the inevitable aromas of the city.

A very nice place, but sad that it was privatized.

In Puebla, traces of everyday life are still preserved in ancient times, the washrooms of Almoloya respond to these places as it is a space where clothes were washed for much of the nineteenth century. Taking advantage of a spring, some public laundries were built that adopted the name of Almoloya, by a nearby river that was also known as the San Francisco River. These laundries are located in the area of ​​the Old San Francisco Promenade. The back of the Chapel of the Cireneo was the space where the laundries put the clothes to dry.
