An eco-lodge which will be constructed and equipped in the buffer zone of the Pomac Forest Historic Sanctuary in northern Peru will start operating by the middle of 2013.
The construction is funded by Fondo de las Américas (Fondam-Peru) and will be executed by Centro Eco.
Maria Vasquez, head of Centro Eco, noted that the construction will start in the next days using traditional materials of the region such as mud, wattle and daub.
“The lodge will have 20 rooms decorated with paintings of Sican’s culture and will provide basic services to foreign and domestic tourists,” Vasquez told Andina news agency.
In addition, Vasquez stressed that this initiative came up after constants requests from tourists, especially foreigners, who wanted to spend the night in this forest so that they could wake up very early and watch endangered birds.
