Zoo Zürich is a must-visit attraction for animal lovers of all ages. My recent visit to the zoo was a truly unforgettable experience that exceeded all my expectations. The zoo is spread across a large area and is home to a wide variety of animals from around the world. The enclosures are spacious and well-maintained, providing the animals with ample room to roam and play. The zoo's commitment to animal welfare is evident in the care and attention given to each animal, making it clear that the well-being of the animals is their top priority. One of the highlights of my visit was the Masoala Rainforest exhibit. This indoor rainforest is home to a diverse range of plants and animals, including lemurs, and various species of birds. The exhibit is designed to replicate the natural environment of Madagascar, and it truly felt like I was transported to a different world. Another standout feature of the zoo is the Africa section, which is home to a number of large animals, including elephants, giraffes, and lions. The enclosures are spacious and well-designed, allowing visitors to observe the animals up close while still providing them with ample space to roam. In addition to the animals, the zoo also has a number of cafes and restaurants where visitors can enjoy a meal or a snack. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my visit, making sure that I had everything I needed to make the most of my day at the zoo. Overall, I would highly recommend a visit to Zoo Zürich. It's a well-maintained and beautifully designed attraction that offers a unique opportunity to get up close and personal with some of the world's most fascinating animals. Whether you're a solo traveler, a family with children, or a group of friends, a visit to this zoo is an experience you won't forget.

A very pretty and big zoo in mid of the forest on the "zurich mountain". You can reach it best via bus or tram. I recommend buying just tickets online (you get a qr code for entrance) so no need to enqueue. The entrance price is 28chf online and I think 30 chf at the counter. If you have a ZKB account you should definitely buy online to get 20% off. On-site they give only 10% (an info which we didn't have but the friendly person at the ticker counter told us so we quickly bought tickets online :) They have pretty much any animal you can think of and you just definitely take time to explore everything. There are various food options on-sight and the prices are normal Swiss level. The zoo is clean and on weekdays not crowded. The only negative point this zoo has is, that it is sometimes hard to get where you want immediately without a map. It's easy too get lost because there is so many paths. Maybe the zoo app is an option here and maybe they also have maps at the entrance and we just didn't see it. You should get one. I would say this is a beautiful place definitely worth a visit. The animals look fine and are treated well as far as I can judge. This is a high quality zoo and the animals and the nice staff there deserves your support!
