It's a pearl in an already amazing city! The animals look fantastic (photos not on my mobile at the moment), but the gardens are also wonderful. It's so nice watching all the locals and the tourists enjoy the sun, shade or just the calmness and beauty around them! I loved it, the entrance fee (13 euros, I believe) is also very reasonable and you can easily spend a whole day here. There are also lots of places where you can grab something to drink or to eat, like an ice-cream, and plenty of WC, which were very clean.
Highly recommended!

The experience was great. Lots of different animals, there are some goats in the beginning who you can stroke, beautiful green park. There's also a possibility to take a boat ride (the boats have roofs, so you won't be exposed to the sun). Some playgrounds for kids at different spots of the park also some other activities like train rides etc. Took us around 2 hours to walk through everything. Overall a great experience, my kid (almost 3 y.o.) loved it :)

Park is not too big but very beautiful.Boat ride is a highlight of this park. It's not expensive. You can enjoy seeing or probably touching hundreds of fishes during your boat ride. There are small playgrounds in between so while you relax kids can play. There are some other activities (car ride for kids, kids mini ferry - obviously you have to pay). There were waffle, popcorn stalls and some restaurants(Though we were disappointed with the food) where you can enjoy your lunch. Overall good experience.

We loved our visit to the Zoological Gardens Karlsruhe. The animal shows were a lot of fun. During the sea lion show the largest sea lion jumps almost all of the way out of the water to grab a fish from the zoo keeper. All of the animals looked well kept and had spacious enclosures. We especially liked watching the Red Panda. The Zoo also has a nice sized pond that you can ride a boat on and several beautiful gardens. We parked at the Congress-Zentrum park house which is only a couple minutes away from the zoo entrance.

Superbly organized and maintained zoo. Recommended times to visit during summer or spring time. As the lakes are not filled with water, which fulfills the view with greenery and birds all around, summer is best time. Went there during december though. Some of my best picks are here. Will add some more pictures when i edit.

There was beautiful scenery with various animals. The entrance and the exit were tricky. You can’t use the entrance as the exit. The animals were slightly stinky, but the staff was washing them. It was my second time being at the zoo in Germany. But I’m sure this place is more organized and better than the one in Heidelberg. Before entering here, I felt the price was a bit high. Nevertheless, after I exited, I thought it was acceptable.
