 Cabecera Park Valencia's

  Cabecera Park, inaugurated in 2004, derives its name from its strategic location at the headwaters of the former Turia riverbed, marking the commencement of the extensive Turia Garden. This park was meticulously designed to emulate a natural riverside landscape, integrating water as its central element through a expansive artificial lake and a network of channels that recreate the original fluvial environment.

The park's history is inextricably linked to the transformation of the Turia riverbed following the devastating flood of 1957, which prompted the decision to divert the river and convert its bed into a verdant corridor. Cabecera Park stands as a pivotal component in this network of urban gardens, offering a landscape that artfully combines meadows, hills, and riparian forests. Among its primary attractions are a picturesque boat dock, an open-air auditorium, and the Bioparc - a next-generation zoo that harmoniously integrates with its surroundings.

This park has evolved into a popular destination for leisure and recreation, featuring an array of walking and running trails, cycling paths, and children's play areas. The design of Cabecera Park reflects a concerted effort to reclaim and enhance Valencia's natural landscape, providing a space where nature and recreation coexist in perfect harmony. It serves as a testament to urban planning that prioritizes both environmental preservation and public enjoyment, offering residents and visitors alike a tranquil oasis within the bustling city.

Bioparc

  

  Valencia's Bioparc, inaugurated in 2008, is an innovative zoological park renowned for its "zoo-immersion" approach, offering visitors a unique and immersive experience of natural animal habitats. This park specializes in African fauna, meticulously recreating ecosystems such as the Savannah, Madagascar's forests, equatorial wetlands, and the equatorial rainforest.

 The Bioparc houses a diverse array of species, including elephants, lions, giraffes, gorillas, and lemurs, among many others. These animals reside in enclosures ingeniously designed to emulate their natural habitats, with minimal visible barriers, facilitating a more intimate and authentic interaction between visitors and wildlife.

 Beyond its commitment to conservation and education, the Bioparc organizes a variety of educational activities and environmental awareness programs. It offers workshops, guided tours, and special events aimed at sensitizing the public to the critical importance of biodiversity and the preservation of natural habitats.

 The Bioparc transcends the traditional concept of entertainment, functioning as a center for learning and conservation that actively promotes respect for and protection of wildlife. Its innovative design and unwavering dedication to environmental education position it as a benchmark among modern zoological parks, attracting thousands of visitors annually who seek both enlightenment and engagement with the natural world.

Bioparc offers two unique virtual experiences: explore African habitats recreated in stunning detail on Tour 1 and discover more areas of the park and its fascinating inhabitants on Tour 2
