About this place:

National Park Noel Kempf Mercado is one of the largest National parks in Bolivia.
It's situated close to the border of Brasil and is officially part of the Amazone region.
In the park you can spot all different types of animals. Capibara's (largest species of rodents in the world) alligators and tortoises are commonly seen, while jaguars, tapir and anacondas are more rare but also frequently spotted. A real feature of the park are Pink River Dolphins, which, if you spend some time on the river, can't be missed.
