SAN JUAN DE LAS HUERTAS (SAN JUAN EL GRANDE), MUNICIPALITY OF ZINACANTEPEC, STATE OF MEXICO With great respect to the people of San Juan de las Huertas, I have made this video that describes the importance and greatness of a place that lived times of greatness since the arrival of German immigrants who contributed their knowledge and investments in the Valley of Toluca and in particular in the construction of the Hacienda de San Juan de las Huertas, beer factories, glass factories, flour mills, soaps, construction of trains and track laying, electrification, creation of small hydro-agricultural works, among other activities. They promoted the birth of soccer that gave rise to the Club Deportivo Toluca.
