I loved this zoo, not too big, but very nice, in the middle of a beautiful park. There are some very interesting animals like tapir, ant-eater and rhinos. All of these just at arm's length. Outside of the zoo there is a n astonishing beautiful botanical garden. Really enjoyed it and recommend

The zoo is located just near the Hacheny station and is accessible easily with U Bahn. No instructing brochure or map. A selection variety of animals. In my opinion, most not kept in optimal condition. It can be a good and instructive day for the kids though. Restaurants, Cafe and WC available. The highlight of the zoo are Rhinos and the Urangutans. I personally am not a fan of or pro zoos. We keep other creatures in captivity with cruelty. It should be really heartbreaking for the animals behind the fences to see that the other birds fly in and out the fences freely.

This is lathes zoo I have been to but it’s dirty in the zoo but they also have a lot of interesting animals to look at.

A lovely zoo, €19 entry fee for 2 adults and 4 kids. It’s only a pity that there are many places closed in the zoo. They are under construction.

Brilliant. Shame about the building work but you have to update and upgrade at sometime. Some different animals here like Amur leopard and anteaters.

i think it’s debatable if zoos are animal cruelty, and i’m not going into this topic…this zoo is very nice! i think it’s not as small as people think it might be. it isn’t enormous but if you are a quick walker, you can have the whole zoo through in 3 hours. the cages are quite big for the most part, and they’re doing construction so they can have more space for the animals which is very good so i’m not gonna complain. one star off because the signs are a bit confusing sometimes, but maybe we just didn’t look right. the prices in this zoo, for drinking are very expensive, i think the food prices are okay. but if you wanna grab some water, do it somewhere else. in general, a nice zoo! but please if you take children teach them to not scream at the animals, that’s just not nice and they are scaring them away

This is a beautiful zoo with wildlife everywhere. Chickens run freely, and the exhibits and enclosures are generous. The staff is kind and thoughtful. The animals seem well-cared-for. It will take the whole day to see the zoo plan accordingly.
