The King’s Causeway is named after the ancient Tlatoani of Texcoco, Nezahualcoyotl, who built the famous hydrological works of the ancient Tenochtitlan that helped control floods and provide the city with fresh water.

The Calzada del Rey Nezahualcóyotl extends from the west of La Milla, towards Xicotencatl Avenue, crossing the First Section of the Forest.
