The Municipal Park Victorio Siquierolli is located in the North Zone of Uberlandia where legitimate examples of vegetation are dense with its trees of coreáceas leaves, gnarled trunks, and armored catfish, flowers and wild fruits, an area with toys for children, biodiversity museum of the cerrado. In a total area of 232,300 square meters, the park is between the neighborhoods Jardim América, Residencial Gramado, Nossa Senhora das Graças and Cruzeiro. It is one of the main sights of Uberlândia.

The park emerged from the donation of lands, where it was formerly known as "Chacara Metallic ". Its owner was Victório Siquieroli, a descendant of Italians. Born in August 1910 in the city of Conquista, he went to Uberlândia at the age of 12 after losing his parents. He lived with his older brother. He began working at the age of 14 to meet his needs. In the area where the municipal park currently resides, the Victory factory existed, where machetes, scythes, etc. were made. In 1996, his beloved wife Anália Resende Siquieroli encouraged Victório to donate the land for the construction of a park, aiming at preservation. He passed away at the age of 93.
The park is totally fenced with fencing and counts with patrimonial vigilance. At headquarters, there are administrative spaces, CODEMA, Cerrado Biodiversity Museum, and Dr. Kerr Green Room. Open to visits from August 31, 2002, when it was inaugurated, it also has a children's playground, hiking trail, and the Interpretative do Óleo trail, aiming at the knowledge of the park and environmental education.

The Park consists of forest formations of the Cerrado biome, presenting a portion of gallery forest and, more broadly, a Cerradão. The Cerrado, in the Municipal Natural Park Victório Siquierolli, presents phyto physiognomies ranging from open formations to forest formations:

Dirty field - The dirty field is an exclusively herbaceous-shrubby physiognomy type, with sparse shrubs and sub-bushes, whose plants are often made up of less developed individuals of the restricted tree species.

The Victório Siquieroli Municipal Park houses an Environmental Education Center, which is open to all school communities and other segments of society, encouraging extra class activities and instructing teachers and students to effectively explore the environment, from a didactic-pedagogical point of view, working from everyday situations. The Environmental Education activities carried out in the Conservation Units are focused on the targeted care, with trained monitors, organization and practice of specific workshops, hiking on trails and, in addition to all this, instruction on the valorization and protection of the various natural resources.
