Metro Parque de los Venados
Parque de los Venados is a station on Line 12 of the Mexico City Metro. The station is located between Zapata and Eje Central. It was opened on 30 October 2012 as a part of the first stretch of Line 12 between Mixcoac and Tláhuac.
During the line's construction, the remains of people believed to be of the Aztecs were found at the station site.
The station is located south of the city center, at the intersection between Eje 7 Sur Municipio Libre and Calle Uxmal. It is built underground.
The name originates from a nearby park, commonly known as "Parque de los Venados" on account of the deer statues located there, but which was originally named "Parque Francisco Villa" in honour of the eponymous Mexican revolutionary leader.
