Program details

Bolivia is one of the places with the greatest biodiversity and the largest number of exotic birds in the world.



Agroflori is a Bird Park that started as a greenhouse about 22 years ago, five years ago it is open to the public. Thanks to the private initiative and the love of nature of its owner, it was consolidated as a park for the conservation and rescue of fauna in extinction or mistreatment, seeking to reinsert the different species into their habitat. The aviary has different species of birds such as Macaws, Blue, Red and Macaw Macaw. In addition to toucans delivered by individuals and authorities. There is also a great variety of other birds such as Peacocks and flamingos rescued by the drought of Poopo Lake in Oruro.



Continuing with the Tour, after knowing the bird park, we visit Villa Albina which is a palace that Simon I Patiño (Baron de Estaño) built for the love of his wife Albina. Patiño, a Bolivian miner, was one of the richest men in the world in the last century, thanks to the enormous global demand and the high prices of tin. Villa Albina that is part of the enormous legacy left by Don Simon I Partiño in the field of Culture, Education, Health and Architecture with monumental works that remain intact until today thanks to the foundation I believe. Villa Albina is part of the four palaces that Patiño built (two in Cochabamba and two in Paris - France). It is a place worth knowing!
