We recently visited this zoo with our children after hearing a lot of hype about it being state-of-the-art. Unfortunately, it was far from what we expected—and certainly not close to deserving that label.

Despite the scorching temperatures rising above 50°C, the thick-skinned animals were not kept in climate-controlled enclosures. It was heartbreaking to see them confined in cages without even the basic facilities required for their well-being.

As for logistics, the entry tickets were priced at Rs. 150 for children up to 15 years and Rs. 250 for adults. Families of Armed Forces personnel were granted free entry, and DHA residents were charged Rs. 125. There's a small café on site for snacks and a roadside cart (the thela) selling finger chips.
