As I told you in the post about the Automobile Museum, We take advantage of the parking lot to meet the Barigui Park. Created in 1972, and occupying about of 1.400.000 M2 the Barigui Park more of Curitiba. We had that for sure, When we got there. The racetracks were packed.

The word indigenous origin and means Barigui “fruit thorny River”, regarding araucárias region pine cones. In the Park we could find the mascots of the town, Nice Capybaras sunbathing by the Lake. I tried to get as close as possible to take a picture without scare them. When I met a small capybara created for dogs, for her it was like piassava broom, and she loved to tickle the belly, Very funny.

In addition to the capybara you can find geese, ducks, various birds and many fish in the Lake, children are fascinated to see them from the top of the bridge. It's a great place to spend the afternoon with the family or doing exercises.

The race tracks as I said were loaded, and also outdoor gyms. I feel a certain envy of cities have parks and the use. Here the river is difficult because they end up abandoned and people are afraid to attend.
