Zoo
Ecopark with animals like Andean bears & crocodiles, plus nature trails, a lake & an eatery.
Slide 1 of 8
A marvelous place located 20 minutes away from Villavicencio's downtown. This park has multiple of the most iconic natural species from this part of Colombia, the cover is a bargain for everything you can see at this park. Highly recommended for couples, family groups or even groups or friends who want to chill out while observing lovely animals.
The zoo is fine. It seems to be that it has been falling apart for some.
Went here on a Friday afternoon. It was a short walk done in a couple of hours. We saw monkeys, tigers, otters, snakes, turtles, capybaras, etc. Good place for kids to explore. Was not very full when we went. They have a restaurant on site.
We had a lovely family time here. The park is big enough to spend a day in it, we enjoyed the sight of all animals and the walk around the lake. We rented a water bike for a ride around the lake and watch ducks and fishes following the water bike, don't forget to buy fish food before riding!. Lunch menu was not cheap but we asked for an "ejecutivo" Dish which was a little more affordable. If the parking lot is full, there are other parking lots around and the fee is for the full day.
A great place to walk and know a little bit more about local fauna
It's recovering from a hard time due to roadblocks on the way Bta - V/cio but their priority was the animal's wellbeing; it's worth giving'em a hand.
Wonderful place, we were surprised to see the variety of animals and the excellent conditions in which they are kept. Much more than what I expected! This place is a must for anyone visiting Villavicencio!
Great zoo with many kind of animals of the Colombia's East zone. Specially to visit in family.

Expansive, multilevel shopping complex offering upscale retailers, restaurants & a movie theater.
Slide 1 of 8
The Best Shopping Center in Villavicencio which offers a huge variety of specialized stores, and restaurants, excellent customer service, very good prices, and super safe. You must visit the Aquarium inside and outside where you can walk around. 🏆🏆❤️❤️
A perfect multi layered experience! Great options for all your shopping needs. Wonderful selection of restaurants. Make sure you check them out on each floor. Plus an amazing thick Amazon forest that are full of life and include bridges over babbling creeks! A must see!!!
A mall integrated into a rainforest. A good combination between architecture and environment. It's really nice to seat in the outdoor terrace to enjoy a meal or just a dessert. You can find any clothing or food inside. Nice to see the aquarium with endemic species
the building is a new important point in the city, it should be visited not only by design immersed in nature but because is a mall that leaves the standards. Natural scenarios that show how the Colombian eastern region is.
It is a nice shopping center to go with the family, make purchases, eat something delicious and enjoy the view....
Large modern shopping centre with a good selection of shops over three levels. What a large outdoor garden/pond with large fish. One of the best restaurants in Villavicencio is Bastimento Restaurant.
Really beautiful and the parking fare was cheap
This is a very nice Central Commercial. Lots of natural beauty around it. Good shopping!

Slide 1 of 8
It's a great place for a picnic on a sunny day and some areas are quiet enough to chill out and enjoy the sounds of nature or do yoga. There are some food stalls inside and outside the park if you feel like trying the local food. It can get busy during long weekends and when there are special events taking place there but it is quite pleasant to visit
Beautiful park to walk and buy souvenirs. There are some events in the park. You can go with your pet and do exercise.
It looks nice, some decorations and places to eat. Some places to play also.
Nice place, lots of people walking, pets and street entertainment
It's a cute place to go and take pictures. Is fresh. A lot of trees and nature. However could be quite unsafe, so don't give "papaya". If you go to Villavicencio you can go there but not alone.
It's a nice park, wide natural spaces, perfect for a picnic or relaxing time, parking zone, food zone, water fountain and also It has a special tree planted by the pope, in a garden
Great place to visit, it's small but it's possible to hear lots of bugs and see birds
Nice park... not too many activities but it is a good place to relax.

Nice popular Plaza to meet up friends!!!
It's a plaza with a big tree, places to sit and people selling ice-cream. Oh and llama rides for small children.
Very good place to walk around and see things and lots of food trucks and good place for pictures
This is the main plaza of Villavicencio, in the middle you'll find an ancient tree and some others around, also there is a water fountain. Around you can see the cathedral of the city, the department hall and some banks
It's a good place to go with the kids on Christmas A little bit dangerous
Super cool place, downside a lot of homeless people!

Gorgeous, clean and neat place to go shopping. Plus, you can study English or french on the third floor
5 years ago I rated It so badly, but I have to recognize they've been working improving everything, food, places and services. 5/5
Big three level modern shopping centre with a variety of shopping and bank. Has movie theatre but only in Spanish.
One the best places to go and chop around, with your friends or family. Weekend days parking is free, the best decision made to cath more people 👍
Comfortable, cozy, and elegant. However, this spread has affected many stores and many stores have had to close, especially restaurants. There isn't a lot of options currently in court food.
Small but kind'a cozy. Needs a better gastronomic offer.
Parking is easy to use, I don't like too much people in mall, but that place is comfortable
