The Grand Taipa Natural Park wasn’t always this beautiful and serene. Until 1988, it was a landfill, but it was eventually transformed to cater to the community and tourists.
Aside from its excellent facilities, it also houses a sculpture zone where you can learn all about the 56 ethnic groups of China. It’s an impressive display, complete with their ethnic attire, the crafts they engaged in, the musical instruments played, the livelihood they did, and more. There are helpful inscriptions that tell you about these minorities in China. With so much to do in and around this park, it’s surely a place that families shouldn’t miss out on.
From the park, visitors can also access the Grand Taipa Hiking Trail, a scenic way to exercise. It’s around 4,000 meters long and located 160m above sea level. The trail rewards you with breathtaking views of Nossa Senhora da Esperanca Bay and the hills nearby. You’ll also encounter some bizarre-shaped rocks around the trail resembling odd things, such as the Coffin Rock. There are useful signages throughout the trail, so you don’t have to worry about getting lost.
Grand Taipa Natural Park and the surrounding attractions are a must-visit.
