    (Translated by Google) I got sad.... I called before going to ask if it was butterfly season and if I was going to see them... they said yes.... When I arrived I found it strange that they said to enter without paying... Then I found out why... There were 2 butterflies in the whole space... The space is not beautiful and green.... and butterflies.... not even fake ones!!!! I think the space is beautiful.... but it's not taken care of.... and a butterfly house without butterflies.... I did 40kms for nothing... and I called ahead!!!! (Original) Fiquei triste.... Liguei antes de ir a perguntar se estávamos na época das borboletas e se as ia ver... disseram que sim.... Quando cheguei achei estranho dizerem para entrar sem pagar... Depois descobri o porquê... Haviam 2 borboletas no espaço todo... O espaço n está bonito e verdejante.... e borboletas.... nem falsas !!!! Acho o espaço bonito.... mas n está cuidado.... e um borboletario sem borboletas.... Fiz 40kms para nada... e liguei antes!!!!

    (Translated by Google) Excellent place, especially if you have children and/or are interested in entomology. You can see/learn about the life cycle of butterflies and the butterfly house itself is very well done, with natural conditions and various species of host plants. The best time to visit is between May and August, with August being the month when you can see the most butterflies. (Original) Local excelente, especialmente se tiver crianças e/ou tiver interesse em entomologia. Pode ver / aprender sobre o ciclo de vida das borboletas e o borboletário em si está muito bem feito, com condições naturais e várias espécies de plantas hospedeiras. A melhor altura para visitar é entre Maio e Agosto, sendo que em Agosto será o mês onde poderá ver mais borboletas.

    A parte “museu” é um pouco fraca e o funcionário nem se digna a receber os visitantes, a parte do viveiro é uma experiência engraçada embora como não fui na “época alta” não havia muitos exemplares. Vale a pensa passar lá algum tempo para visitar aquelas espécies (especialmente tendo em conta que é um espaço 100% natural e grátis)! Está aberto aos feriados

    Wonderfully quiet place. Nice, helpful guide. Come early in the morning and preferably in spring or early September to see beautiful butterflies.

    Fue una super experiencia!! Muy interesante ver todas las etapas de metamorfosis de la mariposa desde sus huevos hasta el adulto, aprendi cosas que desconocia sobre estos animales tan hermosos, quiero felicitar al encargado porque fue un CRACK en su trabajo, se nota que ama lo que hace, nos dio una buena explicación, aclaro nuestras dudas! Soy un blogger con alta reputacion en HIVE y hare publicidad a este hermoso "museo"... Volvere en septiembre para ver la diferencias... Chauuu

    (Translated by Google) A disappointment, a space with so much potential... I only saw 3 butterflies, and one of them was stressed flying against the walls. It's very small and only has dead vegetation, dry plants and plastic bottles. Either close the space altogether or save it, and if maintenance is difficult, cover the ticket (when the space is better taken care of) and call in volunteers. A distance traveled in vain. (Original) Uma desilusão, um espaço com tanto potencial.. Só vi 3 borboletas, e uma delas estava em stress a voar contra as paredes. É pequeníssimo e só tem vegetação morta, plantas secas e garrafas de plástico. Ou fechem o espaço de vez ou o salvem, e se ha dificuldades na manutenção, cobrem o bilhete (quando o espaço estiver melhor cuidado) e chamem voluntários. Uma distância percorrida em vão.

    Really interesting place to take your kids. It's small, you won't take more than 20 minutes but it's educative time well spent

    We had a great time. Mom was able to borrow a wheelchair from the staff at the entrance. We were so thankful she got to she the whole park as a result. Lots of convenient bathrooms and places to eat scattered around the park. If you have good mobility, don't miss the elevated cable cars. Great memories. Fun for the whole family.

    Such a lovely and well kept zoo with a great variety of animals and beautiful gardens. There are wonderful little kiosks for snacks and drinks as well as a large picnic area if you want to bring your own food. You can easily spend a whole day there if you have small children as there is so much to see.

    I have been to many zoos but this in my opinion is the best one so far. Huge variety of animals, most of them I saw so close for first time. Also the cable gondolas offer a great way to see everything from a new perspective. A must visit with kids!

  • 5/5 Ana Paula R. 9 months ago on Google
    A visita pode ser feita gratuitamente, pode-se aceder a área expositiva e o jardim onde encontramos lindas borboletas, o laboratório é somente para visitas em grupo mediante marcação.

  • 3/5 Sérgio C. 7 months ago on Google
    Cheguei tarde ao local e o borboletario estava encerrado. Não percebi se existem borboletas vivas ou se apenas tem amostras delas. Apesar disso tem um parque para crianças muito apelativo e um campo de paddle.

  • 5/5 Erick Alonso D. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely garden, was able to see a few butterflies up close, they would fly onto our hands. The "borboletario" was closed as it's a bank holiday today

    Fantástico. Guia 5*. Borboletas e explicação/exemplificação do ciclo das borboletas

  • 5/5 francis k. 11 months ago on Google
    Ein Zoo mit vielen Schauvorführungen nicht nur Fütterung. Leider sind alle Erläuterungen nur auf Portugiesisch. Trotzdem lohnt es sich daran teilzunehmen. Vor allem die Delfinshow ist toll. Ein Delfin macht sogar einen Doppelsalto. Die Seilbahn gibt einen guten Überblick, man muss nur bedenken, dass man 20 min relativ still stehen muss. Kleine Kinder können bestimmt schlecht über die Brüstung sehen.
