El Árbol del Tule
Montezuma Cypress (Taxodium mucronatum). widely reported as roughly 1,400 to 1,600 years old on growth-rate grounds, though popular sources often round it to 'over 2,000'. Small paid entrance fee to the church courtyard where the tree stands (per Planeta.com's visitor guide); open daily as a standard tourist site in the town center, not restricted. Local festivities are held around it, notably the second Monday of October.
