About Equipetrol

Where to stay in Equipetrol

Not every neighbourhood fits every trip — here's what each one is good for.

Choosing a base in Santa Cruz de la Sierra means weighing districts. Equipetrol is one. The Zoológico de Fauna Sudamericana is the address the record hangs on Equipetrol North, and a room here puts that gate close while the older streets of Santa Cruz stay a ride away.

Families travelling for the zoo will find the district close to it, and anyone else can treat Equipetrol as one option among several.

About Equipetrol

What are the main landmarks in Equipetrol?

Just one landmark is listed. The Zoológico de Fauna Sudamericana, a collection given over to South American animals, is what the register ties to Equipetrol, and nothing else in the district carries a heritage entry of its own. Santa Cruz de la Sierra holds the churches and the plazas.

A visitor after monuments will head for the older city, while a visitor after the zoo need not leave Equipetrol North at all.

What is the history of Equipetrol?

Equipetrol reaches the record without a founding year, a district of Santa Cruz de la Sierra whose written trace amounts to a name, a variant reading of that name, and one zoo. Equipetrol North is that variant. What the district shares is the wider past of Santa Cruz de la Sierra, told in the old streets rather than out here.

Dates for the zoo are not in the record either.

Where is Equipetrol?

Equipetrol North names the same ground. The district sits inside Santa Cruz de la Sierra, in Bolivia, with the Zoológico de Fauna Sudamericana on its list.
