Buenos Aires Ecopark
The Ecoparque, located in the Palermo neighborhood of Buenos Aires, is the result of the ambitious transformation of the city's historic zoo. Since 2016, this space has left behind the concept of a traditional zoo to focus on the conservation, rehabilitation, and release of native species. Many of the original animals were relocated to sanctuaries, and the site has been transformed into an educational environment that uses technology and interactive exhibits to inform the public about the importance of biodiversity. The historic, heritage-protected buildings of the former zoo have been restored and converted into classrooms, laboratories, and exhibition spaces. Visitors can walk along elevated pathways that simulate the natural terrain of South America, experiencing firsthand the ecosystem restoration efforts.
