Natal City Park, Environmental preservation area in Natal, Brazil.
Description
The park spreads across dune landscapes with native plants and natural formations distributed across several urban areas. A network of paved paths connects different zones and passes through varied sections of terrain.
History
The park was designed in the early 2000s by renowned Brazilian architects as an urban conservation project. This initiative brought one of the first large-scale nature projects to the Natal region.
Culture
The name honors Bishop Nivaldo Monte, a local religious figure whose legacy remains connected to the community. Visitors move through well-preserved natural spaces that highlight the link between city and environment, which defines the place today.
Practical
The grounds are open daily and let visitors walk or cycle on the paths. It helps to arrive early to enjoy the more comfortable temperatures of morning and evening hours.
Did you know?
The site holds rare orchid species that appear in wild form at only a few locations. These plants flourish in the dune-bound habitats of the space, where they are part of a fragile ecosystem.
