Deep in the subtropical rainforest of Xilitla, Mexico, sits a surrealist jungle  estate. Created for Edward James, a popular patron of the surrealist movement  in the 1930s and 1940s, the estate combines 80 acres of natural waterfalls and  pools that mirror James’ penchant for design. The grounds are covered with  concrete surrealist structures that intermingle with beds of tropical plants and  orchids.
