Visiting Bird Park in Foz de Iguaçu As I wrote in a previous entry, I went to the city of Foz de Iguaçu - the homeland of Iguazu Falls - a couple of days ago. Besides visiting the falls, I also visited a few places more and Bird Park (''Parque das aves'', in Portuguese) was one of those places. The park was established in a chunk of preserved original Brazilian rainforest and holds a vast array of native birds from Brazil. There are also birds from other parts of the world. Besides birds, it also has other types of animals such as snakes, caimans, tortoises, among others. Although Foz de Iguaçu is well known all over the world because of the falls, it is totally worth it visiting Bird Park. It is located right in front of Iguazu Falls' entrance (Brazilian side) and you can do both trips - the falls and the park - in the same day.
