The complex is located at about 15 minutes by car from Iquitos and covers 369
hectares. It is located around the lake of Quistococha. The Complex has an
artificial beach known as Tunchi Playa. Visitors can visit a museum, the
aquarium, and a zoo with snakes and other exotic animals. There are paths around
the lake and a small dock on the water where one can rent boats. Furthermore, it
has a tourist restaurant, a collection of captive birds, children's park and
sport courts. One can request permission to enter the park by car. This way you
can avoid the stairs and the steep grade ramp at the entrance. The paths of the
entire complex vary in terms of surface -some are concrete, some unpaved- and
also in terms of width, but they generally are 35.1 inches (0.90 m) wide. It is
necessary to have some help for the tour if the visitor has limited physical
mobility or uses a wheelchair. There are no accessible public restrooms. (PromPerú) |
