Visite historique du site de la jungle de Saint-Pétersbourg Prada

Aperçu
Le Jungle Prada Tour est une visite guidée par un historien d'un site de village préhistorique de Tocobaga, y compris le monticule amérindien le mieux conservé de Tampa Bay. On pense également que le complexe du site de la jungle Prada est le lieu d'atterrissage de l'expédition de Narváez de 1528, dont les survivants ont marché de la Floride jusqu'à l'océan Pacifique (1528 - 1536) !

Nous sommes situés sur la rives de la magnifique baie de Boca Ciega, juste en face de John's Pass et de Treasure Island. La propriété privée Anderson Mound a été amoureusement préservée par la famille Anderson depuis plus de 80 ans.

Vous rencontrerez des paons (résidents du site Jungle Prada depuis les années 1950), découvrirez des plantes indigènes utilisées par le peuple Tocobaga , et explorez un côté de Saint-Pétersbourg, en Floride, dont vous ignoriez l'existence !

The Jungle Prada Site is the best-preserved American Indian site in Tampa Bay. The highlight of our 75-minute guided Florida history tour is a huge Tocobaga Indian midden mound and adjoining village plaza. Hidden away in the historic neighborhood known as Jungle Prada, the main mound consists of tens of thousands of ancient conch and whelk shells, and is more than 900 feet long! The subtropical jungle landscape here is populated by dozens of beautiful free-roaming peacocks! The tour and the locations are loaded with Florida history that is explained in a vibrant and engaging way. In addition to learning about the lives of the Tocobaga Indians, you'll also encounter the amazing story of Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca, a Spanish conquistador who landed at the Jungle Prada with the 1528 Narvaez Expedition, and whose incredible journey of survival took him and three others from Florida all the way to the Pacific Ocean (1528 - 1536). If you are a Florida resident or a visitor interested in history and archaeology, the Jungle Prada Site Tour is a rewarding experience that will engage your mind and challenge your perceptions about the Sunshine State!

Le site Jungle Prada est le site amérindien le mieux préservé de Tampa Bay. Le point culminant de notre visite guidée de 75 minutes sur l'histoire de la Floride est un énorme tumulus indien Tocobaga et une place de village attenante. Caché dans le quartier historique connu sous le nom de Jungle Prada, le monticule principal se compose de dizaines de milliers d'anciennes coquilles de conques et de bulots et mesure plus de 900 pieds de long ! Le paysage de la jungle subtropicale ici est peuplé de dizaines de beaux paons en liberté ! La visite et les lieux sont chargés d'histoire de la Floride qui est expliquée de manière dynamique et engageante. En plus d'en apprendre davantage sur la vie des Indiens Tocobaga, vous découvrirez également l'incroyable histoire d'Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca, un conquistador espagnol qui a débarqué dans la jungle Prada avec l'expédition Narvaez de 1528, et dont l'incroyable voyage de survie l'a mené et trois autres de Floride jusqu'à l'océan Pacifique (1528 - 1536). Si vous êtes un résident de la Floride ou un visiteur intéressé par l'histoire et l'archéologie, la visite du site Jungle Prada est une expérience enrichissante qui engagera votre esprit et défiera vos perceptions sur le Sunshine State !

Today I went on a tour at Discover Florida Tours. If you are familiar with the area, you've probably driven past the giant white sign that indicates that Narvaez (who led a very interesting expedition through Florida and lived an extremely interesting life before and after...look him up) landed there in the 1500's. The site was all home to the Tocobaga native Floridians who built the shell mounds on the land. The Anderson family has worked to preserve the mound. David who gave me the tour, is continuing their family mission to preserve and educate . I know most people will find it something they can stop over, but people, I'm telling you to fo to one of their tours. It was only $12, was about 75 minutes, not a lot of walking at all..actually it was minimal in comparison to any other tour). But it was so interesting to not only learn about the Tocobaga and Spanish arrival here, but about local history of the development of the city. It's not a huge area, but it is an important area to preserve. Visiting helps keep things going for them. They also have other events like meditation, yoga, drum circles. David does other local historical talks in the area. He js knowledgeable about not just the family land, but other important historical spots in the county and Florida. You can even rent out a space outside for events like weddings or birthdays, etc. It was not too hot, but because it's a little jungle-y bug spray is needed. Check it our people!! Oh and David is a horticulturist and like an expert on native plants. There are also a bunch 🦚 if you enjoy those types of wild animals.

Absolutely incredible. Phenomenal tour. My husband and I left and said to each other, “David’s grandparents would be proud of what he’s done with the tour.” David is so knowledgeable, super nice, and very passionate about the land and its history. He weaves in Native American history, European history, and family history in an engaging way. The details: Be sure to arrive a few minutes early! He has a short video talking about the land and setting up part of the tour. FOR PEOPLE IN THE SUMMER: the heat is not bad at all on this tour with all the shade. Yes, you’ll get a little warm, but the majority of the time you are covered by trees. Bring a water bottle and enjoy :) We loved this on our July trip! He does tons of outside research to make the story of the area and Florida come alive. Take time and soak it all in! Also, be sure to look out for the beautiful Native American pottery pieces, shells, and other items on the property. So cool that you can see so many beautiful things in this space. Also, even if you are mildly interested in history, I would say to go. I loved learning about it all and I am no history buff!
