    Regularly, the company owner, Commander José Berardo, shocked in 2001 by the destruction by the Taliban of the thousand-year-old statues of Buddha in the cultural landscape and archaeological ruins of the Bamiyan Valley, in Afghanistan, conceived the project of creating a garden as a tribute to the loss of this heritage of humanity.[4] As a result, a 35-hectare space was later opened on the farm, with vegetation where cork and oak trees coexist, and an artificial lake with Chinese carp was installed, surrounded by several terracotta, marble and granite statues of Buddha and other oriental deities, open to visits, initially free of charge, today with a symbolic fee.
