Petroglyphs can be seen in the upper reaches of the RÃo Plátano. Archeologists suspect a hidden town somewhere around this place in the jungle.
The Rio Platano Biosphere Reserve is the home of unique wild life such as toucans, monkeys, parrots, rare butterflies, and sea turtles. Terrain includes jungle, forest, and beach land. Some communities even offer tours of archeological sites! Travellers also get to see how indigenous residents live their everyday lives.
