Family-focused ecopark including primates, zebras & roaming peacocks, with safari bus tours.

Great place to chill out and relax. Tiger, zebra, different types of snakes, iguana, camels etc. Lots of animals. Must visit for everyone.
Amazing place where you see several species wandering independently. Peacocks would walk next to you; safari is there too. It's a small sanctuary kind, would make the children delighted
The main thing you should know for entering is that they accept only cash. There's no kids toilets, in the women's area they're just 2(!) waters. There's a nice placita for kids though.
Not a bad place if you have a family with kids, very well taken care of, I would improve the gift shop with better quality of local hand craft, pay attention to the sign of names off animals that were all switched. and at least some local fresh biscochos, empanadas and sandwiches de migas and a god selected coffee
It was a nice to visit here with family but there was less crowd as expected
First time there. Fee $ 150, around US$ 5 Well maintained Has two electric buses for make a trip for all the reserve. Some jails are small specially for monkeys, other are bigger. The same happens to the snake. Other species are free But what can I say it is a lovely place, specially for families whom go there to a little picnic when it is sunshine. Open 10 to 18 except Mondsy Tuesday
I’ll preface this by saying my expertise is not in mammals so I can’t comment on their care. What I can comment about is the deplorable conditions their reptiles are kept in. The second you walk into the reptile room you’re hit with the stench of urate and feces. Believe me it’s not that hard to get reptile waste smell out of carpet (their chosen substrate for every single snake). One of the first things I noticed was their habitat for the common frog. It was open. No walls. Nothing. Just a fountain in the middle of the room where the frog could easily jump out. There was an LED light on the fountain but no sign of heating. For reference I went in winter where it was around 50° F (10°C), far too cold. In the same room is a tank with cohabitated leopard geckos and some kind of baby tortoise in a tank with no visible heating and a single hiding place. For those who don’t know too much about reptiles, you should never cohabitate leopard geckos under any circumstance. They will fight and hurt each other. You should also never mix species of reptile (something this eco park has never heard of). While I was looking at the leopard geckos, the turtle tank (again with mixed species) sprung a leak and emptied out all its water on the floor. The eco park staff seemed unsurprised and came by with a mop. Not sure if this is a usual occurrence. While the tanks themselves (the glass and size) aren’t awful, it’s what they fill them with that really upset me. Carpet substrate should be used sparingly, but it seems that’s all this zoo has ever heard of. Snakes that require high humidity have only small water bowls. Glass walls have no water spots or indication that someone mists them daily. The worst tank was for the tegus. No lights and no visible heating elements. There were two in a 2x4 foot tank; absolutely ridiculous. I could go on about how multiple snakes were kept in tanks far too small for those numbers or about the inadequate lighting and heating, but I’ll keep this already long review brief. If you care about animals or reptiles in general, avoid giving your money to this place.
The place is great, but only accepting cash in order to buy tickets. You need to drive 2kms in order to get to an ATM. Unnecessary.

With games of all kinds for children. courts and recreational spaces. Place for cycling, outdoor pool. A lake, a bridge and I can't stop talking about what there is. An example to follow. (Original) Es increíble. Limpio, muy bien cuidado y mantenido. Colorido, disfrutable. Permite hacer deportes, tanto como pasear o distraerse un rato. Con juegos de todo tipo para niños. canchas y espacios recreativos. Lugar para el ciclismo, piscina al aire libre. Un lago, un puente y no termino más de hablar de lo que hay. Un ejemplo a seguir.
(Translated by Google) Beautiful...quiet...it has grills, quinchos with tables...immaculate bathrooms, a children's play area...a very nice place!!!!

Beautiful museum with interesting historic relics.
(Translated by Google) I was at the place yesterday. Beautiful. It's a shame that the people who work there are not able to give us information and they send us to read signs. (Original) Estuve ayer en el lugar. Hermoso. Una pena que las personas que allí trabajan no sean capaces de darnos información y nos mandan a leer carteles.
(Translated by Google) Safety pin! In an old railway station (which does not follow the model of the English ones that we see in other towns), a beautiful building. The collection begins with rocks and information about the department's geosites, includes a dinosaur egg, describes the history of the city and also has striking objects from the railway period. We were greeted by two super-informed and charming ladies, enthusiastic about the museum. Gratuitous. A luxury!!!! (Original) Imperdible! En una antigua estación de ferrocarril (que no sigue el modelo de las inglesas que vemos en otras localidades), un edificio precioso. La colección comienza con rocas e información sobre los geositios del departamento, incluye un huevo de dinosaurio, describe la historia de la ciudad y también tiene objetos llamativos de la etapa ferroviaria. Nos atendieron dos señoras super informadas y encantadoras, entusiasmadas con el museo. Gratuito. Un lujo!!!!
(Translated by Google) An incredible experience to enter a place that since I was a child was veiled by the enigmas of a time of trains that has already expired in these latitudes of the country and a haunted house that observed it from not so far away. Today it is the scene of certain cultural activity and the history of the department. I lacked more information about the works and the exposed elements, as well as a greater unity between the inside and the outside that could well be transformed using all the potential of the building's openings and its entire architecture. The women who received us received very good attention and who, in the conversation, told us some interesting details about the old station. I recommend visiting this place that promises to continue becoming a reference place for the hearts of Trinidadians and curious adventurers. (Original) Una experiencia increíble entrar en un lugar que desde niño estaba velado por los enigmas de una época de trenes ya caduca en estas latitudes del país y una casa embrujada que la observaba desde no tan lejos. Hoy es escenario de cierta actividad cultural y de la historia del departamento. Me faltó más información sobre las obras y los elementos expuestos, así mismo una unidad mayor entre el adentro y el afuera que bien podría transformarse utilizando todo el potencial de aberturas del edificio y su arquitectura toda. Muy buena atención las mujeres que nos recibieron y que en la conversación fueron contándonos algunos detalles interesantes de la vieja estación. Recomiendo visitar este lugar que promete seguir transformándose en un lugar de referencia para el corazón de los trinitarios y curiosos aventureros.
(Translated by Google) From its architecture that was the old Afe de Trinidad station. Different from those of other cities in the interior. Especially the decorative aspects. The collections, although small, have impeccable presentation and organization. It is worth visiting. (Original) Desde su arquitectura que era la antigua estaciòn de Afe de Trinidad. Distinta a las de otra ciudades del interior. Sobre todo los aspectos decorativos. Las colecciones aunque pequeñas con impecable presentaciòn y organizaciòn. Vale la pena visitar.
(Translated by Google) Very well cared for. Beautiful memory of our roots. (Original) Muy bien cuidado. Hermoso recuerdo de nuestras raíces.
(Translated by Google) Very nice little museum, we can highly recommend a visit 👍 Two Swiss 🇨🇭🇨🇭 tourists with a motorhome (Original) Sehr schönes kleines Museum wir können den Besuch bestens empfehlen 👍 Zwei Schweizer 🇨🇭🇨🇭 Touristen mit WoMo
(Translated by Google) Very nice, very good presentations, very neat. A place to visit (Original) Muy lindo, muy buenas presentaciones, muy prolijo. Un lugar para visitar
