The story

The circus owes its success to the various explorations it has sparked such as:

Botanists
The scientists
The painters
Poets
Mountain dwellers in search of exploration

They made it from the 16th century the cradle of what is called Pyreneanism. The circus has definitely inscribed its name in legend when Victor Hugo called it 'an impossible and extraordinary object' and 'the colosseum of nature'.
