Churubusco information


Churubusco is a neighbourhood of Mexico City.[1] Under the current territorial division of the Mexican Federal District, it is a part of the borough (delegación) of Coyoacán. It is centred on the former Franciscan monastery (ex convento de Churubusco) at 19°21′20″N 99°8′55″W / 19.35556°N 99.14861°W / 19.35556; -99.14861.[2]

The name "Churubusco" is the interpretation the Spanish invaders gave to the original Nahuatl name Huitzilopochco – meaning "place (or temple) of Huitzilopochtli".[citation needed] Earlier attested forms that the adapted name took include Huycholopuzco, Ocholopusco, Ochoroposco, Uchilubusco, and Chulibusco.
