| description | As in many other places, gardens were a key part of the urban landscape in Aguascalientes during the colonial era, the 19th Century and the first half of the 20th Century. This article summarizes the origins of the city's gardens, concentrating its analysis on the second half of the 19th Century, their epoch of greatest splendor, when they made Aguascalientes “the city of flowers, fruit and water.” From the Plano prepared by Isidoro Epstein in 1855 to the reconstruction proposed by Eduardo J. Correa in his book Un Viaje a Termápolis, the importance of gardens in the city is studied, along with their distribution throughout the city's neighborhoods, the management of the irrigation system, the extent to which they defined the urban process and certain myths surrounding wine production. While more studies need to be conducted, with 459 gardens with irrigation rights in 1883, the city of Aguascalientes seems to be a unique case, representing one of the most important examples of urban horticulture in Mexico. In conclusion, this article reflects on the liquidation of the garden system in the context of the city's industrialization, its accelerated expansion, the emergence of new cleanliness habits and the demographic explosion. |

Al igual que en otros muchos lugares, las huertas fueron parte esencial del paisaje urbano en Aguascalientes durante toda la época colonial, el siglo XIX y la primera mitad del XX. Este artículo reseña sus orígenes y concentra el análisis en la segunda mitad del siglo XIX, su época de mayor esplendor, cuando hicieron de Aguascalientes “la ciudad de las flores, los frutos y las aguas”. A partir del Plano formado por Isidoro Epstein en 1855 y de la recreación propuesta por Eduardo J. Correa en su libro Un viaje a Termápolis, se estudia el peso que tenían las huertas en la ciudad, su distribución por barrios, la gestión del sistema de riego, la medida en que definieron el proceso urbano y ciertos mitos asociados al cultivo de la vid. Hacen falta más estudios de caso para determinarlo con certeza, pero con 459 huertas con derecho a riego en 1883, la ciudad de Aguascalientes parece un caso singular, uno de los mejores ejemplos que hay en México de horticultura urbana. Para terminar, se propone una reflexión sobre la liquidación del sistema de huertas en el contexto de la industrialización de la ciudad, su acelerada expansión, la emergencia de nuevos hábitos de higiene y la explosión demográfica.
