An Insect Hotel

In this fun activity, we see who occupies the insect hotel installed in the gardens of the Lisbon Museum and learn about the importance of insects in promoting richer and more sustainable ecosystems in the city. 

It is now recognised that the installation of insect hotels can help conserve local biodiversity and promote the appearance of beneficial insects in urban areas. In this workshop, families will be challenged to build their own hotel and discover the importance of bees, bumblebees, butterflies and other insects, and their ecological role and influence on natural resources.
