Cuernavaca is the capital city of the state of Morelos in Mexico.  The city's name comes from Cuauhnáhuac, meaning "at the edge of the forest" in the Nahuatl language. It is the municipal seat of the municipality of Cuernavaca.  Cuernavaca is located about 85 km. (50 miles) south of Mexico City on the M-95 freeway. It is known as "the city of eternal spring" because of its consistent 27 °C year-round weather. Cuernavaca is truly in the heart of Mexico, and is surrounded by some of the most beautiful and culturally rich regions of the country.

Cuernavaca has always been a popular vacation destination for people from the Mexico City valley, from the Aztec kings, to the Spaniards and now the rich and famous. The opportunity for interesting side trips are many, all being within only a couple of hours drive, at most, from the capital. Many sights, from populous Mexico City to 18,000 feet volcanoes are a short distance from the heart of the city.

Cuernavaca is a favorite spot of people the world over for its historical interest, its striking scenery, its colorful life, and its delightful climate. The terrain is hilly and the streets are narrow and quaint. A wide variety of activities is available with all of the normal services of a modern city. The city bus system is economical and easy to use. This condition has added historical value to the city. The city has examples of ancient Aztec and Tlahuica cultures and of colonial buildings such as the Palacio de Cortés. Cuernavaca has historical sites from the Revolution, workshops of important artists, and more. Unfortunately, however, a rapidly-increasing propulation in the last couple of decades and a hugely-increased volume of traffic on the city's streets have brought problems of severe congestion and air contamination to large parts of the municipality.

The city has a number of language schools and has, for more than 25 years, been hosting visitors from around the world for the learning of the Spanish language.

Bus destinations from Cuernavaca include very regular services to Mexico City (1.5 hours) as well as services to Toluca, Puebla, Tepoztlan, Taxco, Acapulco and destinations throughout Morelos.  Cuernavaca is no longer served by rail services.   Click to read more on Wikipedia
