Zoologic Park of Cangandala

Located in the Natural Park of Cangandala, in Province of Malange, in Angola, the Zoological Park project aims to create a smaller structure inside the Park, properly equipped and oriented towards tourism, providing accommodation inside, thus as a more complete experience of contact with the landscape and autochthonous animal species. The structure foresees the creation of a public service complex, containing reception, parking for visitors, restaurants, commerce and administrative and technical buildings for the management of the Park. The zoological park also includes a lodge for visitors who wish to stay in the enclosure and the location for a future camping site. The proposed solutions seek to reduce the impact of the intervention on the landscape, using mostly wood construction, as well as natural pavements.
