With only 5 years since its opening, it is worth highlighting the relevance that Bioparc Valencia is having. The innovative design conceived under the concept of “zooimmersion” enchants tourists, who highlight its quality and even purchase the annual pass to be able to visit the park for several days during their short stay.

This idea of “urban nature” that would unite Bioparc and the Valencia aquarium with a green river, is what has motivated those responsible for Bioparc to show their interest in the management of the City of Arts and Sciences, especially the Oceanographic, although for the moment they have not received any contact from the Administration.

Other cities are already noticing this trend and those responsible for Casablanca or Turin have already hired Rain Forest, the company that designed and manages Bioparc, to incorporate this “wild nature park” model to complete its tourist offer.
