Massairo Okamura State Park, State park in Cuiabá, Brazil.
Massairo Okamura State Park is a protected area in Cuiabá that shelters a diverse range of tree and plant species. The site preserves the headwaters of two streams and offers walking trails plus an environmental education center for visitors.
The area was first established as an ecological reserve in September 2000 and received state park status in 2001. This transformation represented formal recognition of its importance for protecting local ecosystems.
The Indigenous Nations Plaza within the park honors the Bororo people who lived on this land before European settlement in Brazil. The space allows visitors to engage with this history and learn about the region's original inhabitants.
The park is open to visitors daily and features several kilometers of walking trails that are easy to navigate. Public facilities and an environmental education center are available to enhance your time in the park.
The protected area is home to several plant species used in traditional medicine as well as a population of howler monkeys. These animals are typical of South America and shape the experience in the park through their distinctive calls.
