Akcent ZOO — Attraction in Białystok

Well, I wasn't going to go to the zoo when I saw it as an attraction. I don't really agree with them, and I'm pretty tight with cash. After visiting the cemetery for the fallen of 1920, I thought we would wander around the outside and see if we could see anything. We'll we could, and we thought how can anyone inside see these animals. We walked halfway around the perimeter, looking at the different animals, and then found the zoo entrance. We looked for the pay booth, and there wasn't one; would you believe it? It was FREE. We then wandered around the other half where the animals we viewed from the inside. As I said earlier, I'm not that keen on locking animals up for human enjoyment, but I guess I didn't have to worry. The zoo was primarily made up of farm yard animals, which have technically been domesticated for many thousands of years. All in all, give it a try with or without kids, and while you're in the area, visit the cemetery a two...

A free zoo, I never expected that to exist. It's quite small, but that's fine. There's some birds, goats and cows/horses type animals. There's also bears, but I don't think they belong in a city zoo, it's a sad sight. The cage is very small for a bear. The bears seem to walk up and down the fence, gotten used to being trapped.

I like the idea of free zoo's, keep it up, but...

A lovely little zoo — small, but very well-kept! We were genuinely surprised to see bears living there — not something you find even in many larger zoos. And it's completely free, which is amazing these days!

The highlight for our 7-year-old daughter was 7 squirrels running around outside — she was absolutely enchanted. Such a charming place to visit...
