Description

Attraction begins at the ground floor from the house and continues in the greenhouses located at the back of the building. The visitor embarks on board sailing boat with weak pace.

The first part is inside the building and is a scenic course. Three sections compose this part: scenes of the virgin forest, scenes of savanna, and fields agricultural. Animals in audio-animatronics make it possible to give life to the scenes as well as sound effects and lights such as storms. The topic of this part is the relation between the man and the environment, environment which the man modifies and often without becoming aware of the incurred risks.

The second part which occurs in a succession from greenhouses interests in new technologies of agriculture. The crossed greenhouses reconstitute a firm piscicultural, Serre S with cultures in activity and laboratories experimental.

One of the greenhouses is a geodetic dome.
