Visitors to the Choco Factory and Museum will walk through chocolate waterfalls, trudge through fudge mountains, dive into caramel rivers and participate in biscuit workshops. All they want to know about the humble cocoa bean and its derivatives can be learnt here.

In the Aztec Temple, they will learn about the natives of the Americas, their civilization, their legends and incredible stories about cocoa.

In the Amazon Jungle, a unique experiential tour through a small, but real, jungle, where simulated conditions allow you to feel the heat and stifling humidity.

In the wooden Amazon Hut you can watch the journey of cocoa and chocolate through Europe, with the help of modern technology.

At the Chocolate Workshop you can participate in the production and packaging stages of chocolate and, of course,… taste it!

At the Biscuit Workshop you see the production process of biscuits and at a new workshop you prepare your own tasty gift!

At the Milk Workshop you can have your picture taken (and more) in the fairy-tale setting of a small farm.

At Quality Control, in the Factory’s chemistry lab, with the help of a “magical” scientist, you learn what you should be careful of as consumers and, of course, you will observe an impressive “chocolaty” experiment.

The Time Machine will take you to places and times where chocolate has travelled through an intricate and playful Labyrinth.

At the Education Hall you will learn, through fun and small gifts, about correctly brushing your teeth and oral hygiene.

At the Choco Art Gallery, a different art and culture venue, you can admire, up close, sculptures, paintings, various works of art, a photography exhibition and comic strips related to chocolate.
