The local experience
Created in 2010 on the grounds of the former Pirelli estate, it protects about 6,300 hectares of forest in four municipalities of Greater Belém. It has trails, and visits require prior authorization from Ideflor-Bio.
The old water tower supplied the locomotives and the workers' village of the Belém–Bragança railroad, whose local station opened in 1884. Downtown there are still railroad workers' houses and the old workshop building.
