Zoo Tábor - A Fővárosi Állatkert Tábora — Attraction in Budapest

Budapest Zoo is a wonderful place to spend a day, offering a great mix of animals, beautiful gardens, and historic architecture. The zoo is one of the oldest in the world, and you can feel its charm as you explore the different exhibits. It’s well-organized, with a wide variety of animals, from big cats and elephants to reptiles and birds.
