Parque Centenario: Museo y Naturaleza / Centenario Park: Museum and Nature
Buen día queridos viajeros, hoy quiero compartir un lindo recorrido que realice con mi familia por uno de los parques más grandes y completos que tiene la Ciudad de Buenos Aires, y digo completos porque no solo tiene naturaleza, parque de juegos, sino también un museo de ciencias naturales que te invita a conocer un poco más de las especies que habitan o habitaron en Argentina. Este fue un día de mucha distracción y nuevos conocimientos.
Good morning, dear travelers. Today I want to share a lovely outing I took with my family to one of the largest and most comprehensive parks in the city of Buenos Aires. I say comprehensive because it not only has nature and a playground, but also a natural science museum that invites you to learn a little more about the species that live or lived in Argentina. It was a day full of fun and new discoveries.
Áreas verdes / Green areas
Bienvenidos al Parque Centenario, un parque ubicado en una rotonda de aproximadamente 12 hectáreas y forma parte del Barrio Caballito. Este parque se presta mucho para visitarlo en familia, ya que abundan las áreas verdes para realizar picnics y una isla artificial, la cual, es el mayor centro de concentración de los visitantes.
Welcome to Centenario Park, a park located on a roundabout covering approximately 12 hectares and forming part of the Caballito neighborhood. This park is ideal for family visits, as it has plenty of green areas for picnics and an artificial island, which is the main gathering place for visitors.
Esta isla está rodeada pon un encantador lago lleno de peces y hermosos gansos que amenizan la vista y la permanencia en el parque.
This island is surrounded by a charming lake full of fish and beautiful geese that enliven the view and your stay in the park.
Museo / Museum
Después de haber caminado y disfrutado de un buen rato en la naturaleza, decidimos entrar al Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales Bernardino Rivadavia, un imponente lugar lleno de muestras de especies marítimas y terrestres, al igual que una gran variedad de formaciones rocosas. Particularmente, me encantan este tipo de lugares, siempre que se nos presenta la oportunidad nos gusta conocer un poco más de la vida y formación de grandes y pequeñas especies de animales.
After walking and enjoying some time in nature, we decided to visit the Bernardino Rivadavia Argentine Museum of Natural Sciences, an impressive place full of exhibits of marine and terrestrial species, as well as a wide variety of rock formations. I particularly love these kinds of places, and whenever we have the opportunity, we like to learn a little more about the life and formation of large and small animal species.
La intención era hacer un recorrido en compañía de un guía que nos fuera explicando, pero a la hora que entramos ya el último grupo había ingresado, por lo que nos tocó hacer la exploración del lugar por nuestra cuenta. Cabe destacar que la entrada al lugar no es gratis, pero el precio es bastante accesible.
The intention was to take a tour with a guide who would explain everything to us, but by the time we arrived, the last group had already entered, so we had to explore the place on our own. It should be noted that admission to the site is not free, but the price is quite affordable.
Rocas y piedras preciosas / Rocks and precious stones
Después de pasar por la casilla de pago, queda de nuestra parte iniciar por el salón que deseemos, así que justo al frente se encuentra el de ciencias geológicas, allí pudimos observar un conjunto de rocas y piedras preciosas colocadas en vitrinas para su protección, muchas de ellas traídas del interior del país. Inclusive, un fragmento de un meteorito te recibe al entrar, llamado El Toba, descubierto en 1923 en una zona llamada Campo de Cielo, entre las provincias de Santiago del Estero y Chaco.
After passing through the ticket office, it is up to us to start with whichever exhibition hall we want, so right in front is the geological sciences hall, where we could see a collection of rocks and precious stones placed in display cases for protection, many of them brought from the interior of the country. You are even greeted by a fragment of a meteorite called El Toba, discovered in 1923 in an area called Campo de Cielo, between the provinces of Santiago del Estero and Chaco.
Exposición Acuática / Aquatic Exhibition
Continuamos y nos fuimos al salón marítimo, a primera vista ya es un impacto ver lo bien que esta acondicionado y cada especie ubicada con su respectiva descripción. Comenzando el recinto nos encontramos con la exposición de una expedición a mar profundo que se realizó en la Argentina el año pasado por el Conicet, un organismo dedicado a la investigación de ciencias y tecnologías. Aquí se encontraron impresionantes especies, inclusive la famosa estrella de mar alusiva a la serie infantil de Bob Esponja, el popular Patricio.
We continued on to the maritime hall, and at first glance, it was impressive to see how well it was set up, with each species located with its respective description. At the beginning of the exhibition, we found an exhibition of a deep-sea expedition carried out in Argentina last year by Conicet, an organization dedicated to scientific and technological research. Here, impressive species were found, including the famous starfish alluding to the children's series SpongeBob SquarePants, the popular Patrick.
Pudimos observar varias especies de peces reales disecados y empotrados en vitrinas, otros fueron elaborados a modo de demostración para hacer la experiencia más realista. Para algunos ejemplares colocan pantallas mostrándolos en su hábitat natural junto a sus características.
We were able to observe several species of real fish, stuffed and displayed in glass cases, while others were prepared for demonstration purposes to make the experience more realistic. For some specimens, screens were placed showing them in their natural habitat along with their characteristics.
Ahora nos fuimos a lo más profundo del mar, donde nos sorprenden las majestuosas mantarrayas, tiburones y ballenas, detallando cada parte de su anatomía e impresionante tamaño.
Now we went to the depths of the sea, where we were amazed by majestic manta rays, sharks, and whales, detailing every part of their anatomy and impressive size.
Aves / Birds
Las aves son otro atractivo del museo, no pensé que había tanta diversidad, permitiéndonos descubrir los diferentes tipos de las mismas, desde voladoras, corredoras, acuáticas, entre otros. La calidad de los animales, en su mayoría, son realizados con gran realismo que es inevitable dejar de detallarlos.
The birds are another attraction of the museum. I didn't think there was so much diversity, allowing us to discover the different types of birds, from flying birds to running birds and water birds, among others. The quality of the animals, for the most part, is so realistic that it is impossible not to examine them in detail.
Insectos / Insects
Para detallar los insectos, hay una manera interactiva, los cuales están colocados en especie de recipientes transparentes cerrados, que giran y en la parte posterior están descritas todas las características de esa especie. Muy interesante y a la vez escalofriantes para los que no nos gusta estar cerca de estos animalitos.
To learn more about the insects, there is an interactive display in which they are placed in transparent, closed containers that rotate, with all the characteristics of each species described on the back. Very interesting, but also a little creepy for those of us who don't like to be around these little creatures.
Mamíferos y Reptiles / Mammals and Reptiles
En las fotografías no se puede apreciar lo realistas que son las figuras de estos animales, uno mejor que otro, creo que es la intención del museo, que podamos sentir ese contacto con la naturaleza desde lo visual y hacernos parte de ella.
The photographs do not convey how realistic these animal figures are, each one better than the last. I think this is the museum's intention, to allow us to feel that connection with nature through our senses and become part of it.
Fósiles / Fossils
Vamos finalizando esta gran visita con el salón de restos fósiles, tanto de dinosaurios como otras especies que aun existen. Es importante destacar que algunas partes fueron confeccionadas con restos reales y otras artificiales, por lo tanto no se deben tocar.
We conclude this wonderful tour with the fossil exhibition hall, featuring both dinosaur fossils and other species that still exist today. It is important to note that some parts were made with real fossils and others with artificial ones, so please do not touch them.
Este paseo fue muy gratificante haberlo realizado en familia y más aún para la enseñanza de mi hija y para nosotros mismos como adultos. Nos fascino y espero que haya sido de su agrado.
This trip was very rewarding for our family, especially for my daughter's education and for us as adults. We loved it, and I hope you enjoyed it too.
