The drive out here is nice. The location is picturesque. The "gate-keeper" (Jorge?) is a kind, welcoming man. Then you actually enter the park! Birds, (big) trees, flowers, bees, and much more, it's definitely worth making it out to Curinanco. Get outside of the city and enjoy this swath of coastal rainforest.

Amazing how the water of the river gets up by the side of the park so you can enjoy both of the atracctions of the city at once, it's also close to the center of the city and it's free (you can give a tip for the care of the park, and i really recommend to do it if you can for all of the beauty of the place)

A very colourful market with lots of vegetables and fish on sale that I have never seen before.Detritus is thrown to the lions(of the sea variety) who luxuriate on adjacent pontoons.
