点评:Next on our walking tour was the Cuale River and the Cuale River Island, also known as the Island of Cats. Cat Island is another name for Isla Cuale, which is located at the mouth of the Cuale River in Puerto Vallarta's Old Town. This is a quiet and peaceful area in the south part of Puerto Vallarta’s downtown area, near the Malecon, and described by the tour guide as an “enchanting island oasis”. The warm climate and lack of predators on the island has led to a large population of gentled feral cats relaxing in the gardens and around the restaurants and shops. There is a cultural center, and a craft market, and street art in this area. Get to Cat Island by walking along the Malecon south to the bridge over the Rio Cuale. There are stairways leading down to the island, as well as two hanging bridges, La Iguana Bridge and Puente Rio Cuale. Some other names for this unique area of Puerto Vallarta include Isla Rio Cuale, Isla del Rio Cuale, Cuale River Island, and The Island of Cats.
I enjoyed this peaceful quiet park, but I did not see any cats.
There were also some big trees with iguanas sunning themselves. This one is good-sized. Like the cats, they are protected.
This sign thanks the Puerto Vallarta Botanical Garden for its contribution to the garden plants.
There was also an opportunity to shop.
翻译:徒步之旅的下一站是库阿莱河和库阿莱河岛,也被称为猫岛。猫岛是库阿莱岛的另一个名字,它位于巴亚尔塔港老城区库阿莱河的入海口。这里是巴亚尔塔港市中心南部一片宁静祥和的区域,靠近海滨大道,导游将其描述为“迷人的岛屿绿洲”。岛上气候温暖,没有天敌,因此聚集了大量性情温顺的野猫,它们在花园、餐厅和商店周围悠闲地休憩。这里还有文化中心、工艺品市场和街头艺术。沿着海滨大道向南走到库阿莱河上的桥,即可到达猫岛。桥上有通往岛屿的阶梯,还有两座吊桥——鬣蜥桥和库阿莱河桥。巴亚尔塔港这片独特的区域还有一些其他的名字,例如库阿莱河岛(Isla Rio Cuale)、库阿莱河岛(Isla del Rio Cuale)、库阿莱河岛(Cuale River Island)和猫岛(The Island of Cats)。
我很喜欢这个宁静的公园,可惜没看到猫。
公园里还有一些大树,树上爬满了晒太阳的鬣蜥。这只鬣蜥个头挺大。和猫一样,它们也受到保护。
这块牌子感谢巴亚尔塔港植物园为公园植物所做的贡献。
这里还可以购物。
