    It's a great zoo, and a nice, cheap way to spend a nice afternoon. Bring your walking shoes, though.

    They have a serious bee/trash problem- it's a health hazard. Not impressed and won't be back.

    It's that old kind of Zoo, with animals enclosed in a small place although the Zoo is pretty big by itself. Sometimes sad to see animals lonely in such tiny spaces, they even separate same species.

    Зоопарк очень приятный, много животных, они все в хорошем состоянии. Достаточно большие вольеры. Территория вся в деревьях - можно гулять без проблем в солнечные дни.

    Bastante grande, buena opción para sábado pero llega temprano así evitas colas. Compra boletos online, es mejor. Los gorilas mis favoritos.

    Три часа, чтобы обойти все вольеры в достаточно быстром темпе. Интересно, что животных держат в основном "семьями". Красивые площадки, ухоженные животные.
