Nedaleko od Larnake, u mestu Mazotos nalazi se park kamila. Videli smo to na mapi, pa smo odlučili da ga posetimo. Autobusom smo se vozili nekih 20 minuta. U sred ničega, vozač je stao i viknuo KAMEL PARK. Izašli smo. Ok, videli smo park, al nismo mogli da nađemo ulaz. Vrteli smo se malo i uspeli da uđemo. Ulaz je 3e + 6e ako hoćete da jašete kamilu. Ako hoćete da hranite kamile, 1e je kesa hrane koju možete kupiti na ulazu.
Ušli smo i uputili se ka ograđenom delu. Dočekalo nas je krdo kamila koje su pratile kesu sa hranom i pokušavale da dopru do nje. Okeeeej, odbor za dobrodošlicu. Malo smo ih hranili, mazili, slikali, zagledali kamenac na njihovim krivim zubima. ONA se trudila da sačuva kosu jer je jedna kamila uporno pokušavala da je onjuši. Uživale su pozirajući nam dajući na znanje da su navikle na posetioce i da su svesne da su zvezde. Onda sam odlučio da ću ipak da jašem.
Suuuuper osećaj. Kamila je legla, popeo sam se i smestio u sedlo a onda je usledilo iznenađenje. Prvo se podigla na prednje noge i neko vreme ostala u tom položaju, te sam ja bio nagnut ka nazad. Bilo je nezgodno, čvrsto sam se držao i trudio se da ne padnem. Iiiiii konačno se podigla i krenuli smo. Sa nama je krenula još jedna kamila, da se malo prošeta. Jahao sam tako po njoj poznatom putu. Bilo je odlično. U parku smo napravili neke od neverovatnih fotografija. Odlično iskustvo!
Pored kamila, u tom parku možete videti magarce, koze, nojeve, konje, razne ptice…mini zoo vrt. Tu je i bazen gde se možete rashladiti, restoran, kafić, suvenirnica, igralište za decu…
Preporučujemo da posetite ovaj park i odvojite dobar deo dana da uživate. Sigurni smo da se nećete pokajati. Mi nismo.

This park is located in Mazotos, not far from Larnaca. We saw it on the map, so we decided to visit that place. By bus we drove about 20 minutes. In the middle of nowhere, the driver stopped and yelled CAMEL PARK. We went out. Ok, we saw the park, but we could not find the entrancer oh, there it is. Admission is 3e + 6e if you want to ride a camel. If you want to feed the camels, 1e is price for a bag of food you can buy at the entrance.
We went in and headed to the fenced part where they are. We were greeted by a herd of camels which accompanied the bag with food and trying to reach it. Ok, welcoming committee. We fed them, petted, photographed, stared at tartar on their crooked teeth. SHE tried to save the hair because a camel kept trying to sniff her. Camels enjoyed posing for giving us the knowledge that they are used to visitors and are aware that they are stars. Then I decided to ride.
Awesome feeling. Kamila lies, I climbed up and placed in the saddle and then – surprise. First she stand up but only on the front legs and a few momments stayed in that position, and I was leaning to the back. It was awkward, I held tightly and tried not to fall. Aaaaand finally lifted and we start. It was great. In the park we made some incredible photos. Great experience!
Besides the camels, in this park you can see donkeys, goats, ostriches, horses, a variety of birds … a mini zoo. There is a pool where you can cool, restaurant, cafe, gift shop, children’s playground …
We recommend to visit this park and take the good part of the day to enjoy. We are sure that you will not regret it. We are not.
