chinampas are water gardens and are about 30m x 2.5m
its an artificial island used for gardening vegetation. it has a fence made from many stakes to anchor the plot of land to keep from floating away and is filled with mud, soil and vegetation. they are lined paralell to each other, foming a canal in between where canoes could pass through. most of the time a willow tree is planted in the garden to make it more stable and provide shade.
