First we went to Temaikèn, which is a zoo in Belén de Escobar, Argentina. It is the only AZA accredited zoo in that country. The name is a portmanteau of tem (earth) and aiken (life) in the language of the native Tehuelche people.
Covering 178 acres, Temaikèn specializes in native Argentine wildlife and exotic and threatened species. In addition to the zoo the Temaikèn Foundation owns the Osununu wildlife conservation area. It also has programs to manage and protect the Parana Pine ecosystem and butterflies and orchids within the national wildlife conservation system. It is also a popular tourist destination.
We saw a lot of kind of animals, and learn a lot of them. We stayed there till the lunch time, in a restaurant called "Barba Roja". Then we bought souvenir.
After this,we visited Tecnópolis
a
science, technology, industry and art mega exhibition, based in Argentina and
the largest in Latin America. Located in Villa Martelli, in the Vicente Lopez
division, Tecnopolis was inaugurated on July 14, 2011, by President Cristina
Fernández de Kirchner.
When we were on Tecnópolis started raining, so we finish the tour early but we went to the unicenter shopping. when we finished we returned to the hotel.Source of information:
