Parque dos Igarapés, Ecological park in Belém, Brazil.
Description
Parque dos Igarapés is an ecological park in Belém built around natural springs and riverine forest alongside the Ariri River. Visitors find walking paths, recreational facilities, and open spaces where water springs create small pools throughout the grounds.
History
The park was established in the 1980s and grew with additions in the following decade that brought overnight accommodations and meeting facilities to the site. These expansions reflected growing interest in developing the area as a recreational destination.
Culture
The chalets incorporate traditional indigenous architectural elements, integrating local design principles with modern accommodation requirements.
Practical
The park is accessible on foot and designed for visitors to explore the grounds independently at their own pace. Early morning visits allow you to enjoy the natural areas with fewer crowds.
Did you know?
A suspended canopy walkway carries visitors high above the forest floor, revealing plants and wildlife of the upper tree layers that remain invisible from ground level. This elevated path offers a perspective rarely experienced in typical park visits.
