The Heron Sanctuary in Cintalapa is an area where around 300 herons live and nest in trees in an area of 500 square meters, where the couple takes care of the eggs until they hatch and then fly away. For visitors it is a very important natural attraction.
Cintalapa is one of the municipalities of the Mexican state of Chiapas. Its name is of Nahuatl origin and means "water underground." The surname Figueroa is added to it, in homage to the memory of the poet Rodulfo Figueroa Esquinca. Among its attractions are the Los Ocotones Sustainable Reserve, the Central Park (or Candelaria Park), the Sanctuary of the Herons, the Dr. Rodulfo Figueroa Art Gallery, the Cintalapa Art Gallery and the Arco del Tiempo eco-tourist center.
In Cintalapa the most important celebrations are the fair of the Virgin of Candelaria, the feast of Jesus and Good Hope, which is celebrated with traditional dances and rituals.
