点评:We stayed in Iquitos centre and got a motortaxi (S3-S5) to Puerto Bellavista-Nanay. After being swarmed by tour operators, we politely declined their suggestions and headed through the market to the boats lined up.
Look for the public, ‘collectivo’ boats, ask for the one to take you to Padre Cocha. It is best not to mention “butterfly centre/ Pilpintuwasi” at this stage (for fear of being taken to the wrong butterfly centre) simply say you want to go to Padre Cocha. The price is S3 per person on the public boats or you can get a private boat. We went with a man called Teylor who had his own boat, he proved to be trustworthy and charged us S5 per person to get to Padre Cocha (this took 15-20 minutes).
When you arrive in Padre Cocha, Pilpintuwasi isn’t well sign posted and there are signs for the other butterfly farm just before it which will try and lead you there. Look for the “Original” butterfly farm (white sign) and ask the locals to guide you if you get lost! It should only take 15 minutes to walk there.
The approach to Pilpintuwasi is pretty long and it feels like it’s closed on approach. Don’t give up, you’ll be greeted by the Austrian owner, Gudrun and/or volunteers.
The work the centre does is truly incredible. There is an array of animals (including a Jaguar) not just butterflies, all of which have been rescued.
Not to be missed!
翻译:我们住在伊基托斯市中心,然后乘摩托出租车(费用3至5索尔)前往贝拉维斯塔-纳奈港。在遭到众多旅游中介的围堵后,我们礼貌地拒绝了他们的提议,随后穿过市场,走向停泊在那里的船只。
请寻找那些公共的“集体船”,并询问哪艘船能带你去帕德雷科查。此时最好别提及“蝴蝶中心/皮尔平图瓦西”(以免被带到其他的蝴蝶中心),只需说你想去帕德雷科查即可。乘坐公共船只的费用为每人3索尔,您也可以租用私人船只。我们找了一位名叫泰勒的人,他有自己的船。他为人可靠,收取我们每人5索尔的费用,将我们送到帕德雷科查(航程约15到20分钟)。
到达帕德雷科查后,Pilpintuwasi蝴蝶园的指示牌并不多,而在其附近有一些指向另一家蝴蝶养殖园的标识,可能会把游客引向那里。请寻找标有“Original”字样的蝴蝶养殖场(白色招牌),如果迷路了,可以请当地人帮忙带路!步行前往仅需15分钟左右。
通往Pilpintuwasi的路相当漫长,沿途看起来似乎是条死路。但千万别放弃,奥地利籍老板古德伦和/或志愿者们一定会热情迎接你。
这家中心所做的事情真的令人惊叹。这里饲养着各种各样的动物(甚至包括一只美洲豹),而它们全都是被救助过来的,并不仅仅只有蝴蝶。
绝对不容错过!
