The most important and interesting part of the museum is the hatchery, where a number of butterflies reproduce in a protected area, with stable climate conditions and ideal environment. Thus, the Museum not only does it give a museological view of the biotope, but it also contributes to informing the visitors on ecological topics, while at the same time is a good sample of eco-tourism, an alternative tourist development. |
