The sheer beauty of northern Mexico's Sierra Madre Mountains is only one reason why many visitors come a long way to enjoy some quiet time in this part of the country known as the Copper1 Canyon2.
Its natural beauty and panorama3 that it offers is unbelievable. If you just look at the beauty that you see here. It's, it's awe-inspiring.
The views of the beautiful canyons4 are spectacular. A train ride through dozens of tunnels adds to the allure5 of the mountains. And the opportunity to interact with the region's Tarahumara Indians is another reason this isn't an average mountain destination.
You have the Tarahumara Indians, inhabit in these mountains. And the Tarahumara Indians is one of the most unique native Americans that you still can see in its original state or the, in the original habits that they have kept for thousands of years.
But is this entire natural environment at risk as a result of an increase in tourism itself? Not according to an areal businessman, who believes in playing by the rules of nature for the benefit of the region.
It's a, it's a very complex thing, but we believe that is (the) only way to go. And for future generations, we have to start now by preserving what we have and letting older generations also enjoy what we're doing right now. So, it's a job and it's a work that we're gonna do forever.
Tourism officials say there is no reason to worry. They say there aren't enough visitors in the Copper Canyon region to prompt cause for concern. But they are preparing for the future by researching and developing conservation plans.
Of course, we want to develop the area but we're taking care of nature. It's very important for us to protect nature. The Copper Canyon is very very important for tourism in the state of Chihuahua.
We want to be more cautious. We created an organization called Sierra Madre Explorer that is dedicated6, you know, to keep the, the, perhaps, to keep the destination as untouchable as we can. And so that's a big effort we're doing because we see a big responsibility to keep it very very clean and very eco-safe.
Regardless of the reason, mountain lovers are pleased that at least for now the precious landscape won't be touched by the hand of economic progress.
