De lejos, ora se llegue de Cuernavaca por el camino quebrado de las Tetillas, que serpentea en medio de dos colinas rocallosas cuya forma les ha dado nombre, ora descienda de la fría y empinada sierra de Tepoztlán, por el lado Norte, o que se descubra por el sendero llano que viene del valle de Amilpas por el Oriente, atravesando las ricas y hermosas haciendas de caña de Cocoyoc, Calderón, Casasano y San Carlos, siempre se contempla a Yautepec como un inmenso bosque por el que sobresalen apenas las torrecillas de su iglesia parroquial. De cerca, Yautepec presenta un aspecto original y pintoresco. Es un pueblo mitad oriental y mitad americano. Oriental, porque los árboles que forman ese bosque de que hemos hablado son naranjos y limoneros, grandes, frondosos, cargados siempre de frutos y de azahares que embalsaman la atmósfera con sus aromas embriagadores. Naranjos y limoneros por donde quiera, con extraordinaria profusión. Diríase que allí estos árboles son el producto espontáneo de la tierra; tal es la exuberancia con que se dan, agrupándose, estorbándose, formando ásperas y sombrías bóvedas en las huertas grandes o pequeñas que cultivan todos los vecinos, y rozando con sus ramajes de un verde brillante y oscuro y cargados de pomas de oro los aleros de teja o de bálago de las casas. Mignon no extrañaría su patria, en Yautepec, donde los naranjos y limoneros florecen en todas las estaciones. Verdad es que este conjunto oriental se modifica en parte por la mezcla de otras plantas americanas, pues los bananos suelen mostrar allí sus esbeltos troncos y sus anchas hojas, y los mameyes y otras zapotáceas elevan sus enhiestas copas sobre los bosquecillos, pero los naranjos y limoneros dominan por su abundancia. En 1854, perteneciendo todavía Yautepec al Estado de México, se hizo un recuento de estos árboles en esta población, y se encontró con que había más de quinientos mil. Hoy, después de veinte años, es natural que se hayan duplicado y triplicado. Los vecinos viven casi exclusivamente del producto de estos preciosos frutales, y antes de que existiera el ferrocarril de Veracruz, ellos surtían únicamente de naranjas y limones a la ciudad de México.
