Metro Tasqueña
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Metro Tasqueña (sometimes also spelled Taxqueña) is a station on Line 2 of the Mexico City Metro system. It is located in the Coyoacán borough of Mexico City, directly south of the city centre on Avenida Tasqueña. It is a surface station and the southern terminus of the line.
The station logo represents a crescent moon. The name comes from Avenida Tasqueña, which in turn took it from Taxco, Guerrero an important silver mining town during the colonial period.
Tasqueña connects Line 2 with the Xochimilco Light Rail line, which runs from this station to the borough of Xochimilco. It also connects with at least two trackless trolleybus lines, one running between Tasqueña and Metro Autobuses del Norte, north of the city; the other line runs between colonia San Lorenzo and UNAM.
Metro Tasqueña also serves Mexico City's southern bus depot, which serves important cities like Cuernavaca, Acapulco, Taxco, and the rest of southern Mexico.
