Casa de Campo Photos.

The Casa de Campo has changed since I lived near here from '94 to '97. I used to walk for an hour 4 or 5 times a week and I'd have to side-step c@ndoms and street-ladies all the way around the lake and back. It's still a work-area to a few, which can be quite a shock to see from the Teleferico (the cable car) let me tell you, but it's not anywhere near as bad since they closed the park off to much of the through-traffic. I was also really impressed by how much thicker and taller the trees had grown. Overall, it's much more beautiful than it used to be.
